Sorry but the brown/black “mountain” looks like crap – especially placed next to boxy buildings! – worst possible placement ! – he should have build somewhere else maybe but this is just ridiculous.

Nice sculptures, but unless it is able to create greater profit, it will not be mainstream. It takes money to make buildings, and those with money want their money back.

I think the way to test if the fish like the tank would be to connect the custom tank to the standard square one and see which tank they spend more time in.

Being someone who was born and raised in China, I am very proud of this “back to the nature” concept, which China has abandoned for 70 years! What concern me is the reality, like the severe pollution, the real estate bubbles, and most of all, the currant political situation. Remember the “tofu-dreg project” led 6898 school buildings collapsed in 2008 during the earthquake, left over 5K school children dead? I admire the design, but my question is the quality of these new construction…

Box and rectangular-shaped buildings are commonly used n architecture because they are standard designs but it’s also a visual representation of man’s attempt to create order and control in nature, which is chaotic and random, so a more nature-inspired building does create a better sense of unity with nature

He reminds me so much of Howard Roark from the book ‘The Fountainhead’. More power to such visionaries!

The fishes in the second tank would be like, “where the heck are we? I can’t find my way.”

I wish this mindset existed 20 years ago when I was deciding my career. I wanted to do architecture, but was struggling with inspiration. What a great talk.

I love the aesthetics and function designed to complement nature, but I especially love the literal incorporation of nature- habitats in a human habitat. Its best to not build in the first place but building is obviously needed and this ethos is a far better alternative to the status quo
