///byn shared with us their design, UNVEIL, an office complex, part of ORDOS 20*10, the new financial district of Ordos, which is in the third planning growth of the DongSheng District, in the Northwest area of the City of Ordos. Ordos is the fastest economic grow city in Inner Mongolia, China. Ordos has 86,752 square kilometers, which is about 80 times Hong Kong’s size. For this project, similar to the Ordos 100 project, the local government has decided to put together a large group of architects. Instead of being 100 foreign architects, they reduced the list to the 20 best Chinese architecture practices and 10 international ones with experience in mainland China. More images and architect’s description after the break.
Based on a public lottery, plots T20 & P27 where assigned to ///byn. Both plots are one next to each other. T20 is on a flat area and P27 on a sloped area. In between them a linear public park plot will host public amenities buildings. From the beginning, bynSTUDIO designed the two plots based on the same design principle, due to their proximity and direct visual connectivity.
