More than any other building in the city it is the mall that most stands out. This is a direct result of the migration it has undertaken since the years of its suburban existence. In order to survive downtown it had to assume a radically new form, i…

About Me:
Neville Mars 何新城

The body of work Neville Mars is diverse and characteristic. It moves between architecture, planning, research and art installations but has a clear focus on dynamic urban landscapes. In 2003 Neville founded the DCF and outlined a comprehensive research for China’s urbanization for 2020. The work is published entitled “The Chinese Dream – a society under construction” (010 Publisher, June 2008). The project is available on-line and continues to evolve on the online platform.

You are working very big projects...
This is specially hard... I am coming from on ex-country /f.d.
Yugoslavia/ which split very fast / 1918-93/ maybe because it was built also very fast / like now China/. AS ARCHITECT, WE WAS LEARNING , AT THIS TIME, NOT TO BIG SEPARATED PARTS OF TOWNS, ONLY AS SLEEPING BOX FOR WORKING CLASS... And we did not make them, we were building very modern... but also, almost, chip... Country split in any way...
Short, I can only worn that, if you big so big new towns for villagers / people which culture still exists on village-level - minimum 8-10 years tills they come in big towns/ you mast maybe accommodate towns, too, little bit more to them, so that they feel more comfortable, special psychologically, and not become some kind of half robots- half human, and in this case with out theirs own opinion and taste /... In any case VERY HARD.../
Regards Jadranka

I am practically beside myself that I have been out of town and forced to miss your talks, which I was very much looking forward to - the Bradbury building is a pleasure to visit, but each of your talks sounded especially interesting and unmissable...aarrggh!!

Completely fascinating book! I tried to order on Amazon (US site) but not yet available. Found it available for pre-order on Amazon UK. Can I get it directly from publisher or independent source rather than Amazon? I suspect this book is required reading, and would like to get it ASAP.
