The Suburbs of Perfect Brightness

Part 2 Project 2017

 University of Greenwich | UK
This project questions the current proliferation in use (and miss-use) of (overly) simplified cultural motifs by western architects in Beijing. By examining the compositional and curatorial systems of Beijing’s ancient Summer Palace - along with the drawings and paintings that depict it - the project endeavours to develop a relevant spatial, material and representational approach for a new suburb for Beijing.
