Given the fact that the ground is very loose and in many instances needs
to be radically altered to suit the masterplan, our proposal is using
these processes of artificially generated topography to produce a
locally specific landscape – ripples, where the ground itself becomes a
device for the organization of flows.
In this way the ground itself operates as a multilayered and intense
metabolic system whilst offering continuity to the Mongolian undulating
landscape. Finally there is no opposition between landscape and
buildings. Neither is subordinating the other- they need each other to
coexist.With cubic building volumes stipulated by strict planning rules, we introduced internal cores which are translating horizontal flows
into vertical ones, their metabolic system and structural system running
in parallel enable the treelike spreading of those flows and forces.
Yet ultimately the system transforms into an artificial rational box
with mere reverberences of the organic underlying organization.
