Architecture and urbanism works at a scale today like never before. We tend to make building out of certain scale, as we attempt to make building at larger scale, they separate and become independent buildings, and that structures the logics of how we understand the scale of spaces. Whether or not it is a single building, collection of buildings, a city, or urban landscape…Because of the continuous landownership and the aggregation of capitalism in the case of Foxconn, it makes the building at a large scale plausible. This thesis explores the possibility when a single building operates at the scale of a large part of the city, and the ramifications with respect to its effects to the city.application/pdfengCopyright is held by the author, unless otherwise indicated.
