The latest China quality architecture to be causing a stir is the unashamed uniformity of a vast new Hainan suburb, combining both the charms of suburban sprawl and large-scale housing projects.
On the positive side, the “villas” are presumably a major improvement over the village shacks they are intended to replace, assuming they stay up and do not derive most of their value from a property bubble:
At the other end of the scale of uniqueness versus uniformity, this inexplicable and rather precarious looking structure has also been arousing comment of late – it can only be hoped it is built to withstand the “magnitude 0” quakes which cause the collapse of so many Chinese buildings:
Honestly this type of things is scary. I don’t know how anyone could live in them
As much as these dwellings resemble a fucking POW camp, I’m sure they’re a MASSIVE step up from the rural shacks that migrant factory workers came from.
For the first time in their lives, their s♥♥t goes into a toilet and sewer instead of a stinky hole in the ground.
Their water supply is sanitized and comes out of a faucet instead of a greenish-colored pond that serves as a dumping ground for some factory.
Holy f♥♥k, those yellow fucks will never fail to surprise me with their stupidity.
This is going to be news when it explodes, soon I would assume.
Laugh…
You just know what can be proved to you.
Those farmers were lived in old, wooden houses like this kind:http://www.gog.com.cn/pic/0/10/53/47/10534703_937744.jpg
Now, they change those house and its land to the buildings show in the news above, with furniture preplaced. They can also get other room frontage on streets, which can be open for small shop or just loan it.
this is the news about those buildings:
