Architecture Explode in Shenzhen
In tandem with China's economic boom and rapid urbanization, theaters have sprung up throughout the country in the past decade. Most have extravagant exteriors, but are often spatially monotonous and far detached from the general public and everyday urban life, greatly underutilizing the tremendous public resources invested in them. After winning a competition to design the first theater in Pingshan, a new district in the municipality of Shenzhen,
OPEN had the opportunity to take a critical look at the past development of theaters in China, and to explore new possibilities for the future.
