i believe going simple but nice is the current trend in china. but OMA’s approach towards architecture has been quite fascinating. he re-thinks a lot of projects these days. but sad to say, this is not one of them. its just the same as my design studio project!! wakakaka..

I don’t understand how OMA won the competition with this design and even worst I REALLY don’t get how ShenZhen government decided to go with this design. Box shape building would be aesthetic as well like the Museum of Contemporary Art New York. But this exchange building is not at the same league. SAD SAD SAD. These days Chinese have spent a lot of money on some expensive but ugly buildings, another example is the Beijing CCTV towers.

Does Rem just not care anymore? Or is OMA hiring preschoolers to design their buildings these days? (death to the diagram!)

Rem Koolhaas is an original head-bussa.

I really don’t understand OMA. Doesn’t matter if they manage a good design or a bad one, they tend to win everything.
