japanese architect sou fujimoto’s design for ordos 100 is ‘not an object, but a field of relationships’. the project consists of a collection of demarcated plots and residential volumes, instead of ‘one object per one plot’, various spatial gradations begin to emerge within the area. throughout the plot, the walls are positioned like a spiral. space fluctuates with the openings’ sizes, forming spaces that manifest the gradations within the plot envisioned as a field of relationships. between the walls, various rooms and gardens intermingle as they fuse into one another.
