During the last decades there has been an over emphasis of speed in Chinese cities. Houses, shop, offices and again more houses are constructed in high gear. However, all these houses are in the same format. The combination of high speed, the struggle to solve similar housing problems (orientation, daylight, ventilation, safety) and the opportunism sometimes of our profession have led to the construction of massive towers and slabs with repetitive housing units which discourage diversity, flexibility and individuality. These repetitive urban forms deny the individual desires of inhabitants and the collective needs as society. They fail in many cases to reflect and respond to the uniqueness of its physical context, cultural environment and social reality. 

It has always been MVRDV’s ultimate mission to call for individualism which can be connected with density and therefore with collectivism, and this has been the initial desire for this project.

Starting from personal interest which can help to connect people together, this project aims to define space of clusters to ‘collect’ youngsters of the same interest together, thus helping to build up relationship. By creating unique housing units and common spaces within and outside clusters. This whole building can be defined as an aggregation of private spaces, semi-private spaces and public spaces.
