Ordos was founded less than 10 years ago, but now claims to be the cultural center of China. A museum of contemporary art has already been erected there, an ambitious project of the Ordos 100 residential complex (curated by Ai Weiwei and Jacques Herzog) is being implemented, new cultural and public buildings are being built. Among the latter is the concert hall in the Kaokaoshin area of the workshop of Merdad Yazdani. Its volume is made up of five cylinders of different heights and diameters. Their composition follows the steps of a traditional Chinese dancer of the long sleeves, and the curves are inspired by the outlines of her clothes. The building will house the main concert hall with 1200 seats, a traditional theater hall for 335 seats and a black box hall for 100 spectators.
Also bureau "Yazdani Studio" took part in the project "Ordos 100", in which 100 workshops of novice architects from all over the world design a villa in the future "collection" of experimental architecture. T. n. Villa I, a triangular structure, is built on the interweaving of various routes in its space: they lead from one room to another, simultaneously opening up picturesque views of the surrounding landscape for future inhabitants.
