Windows at an Exhibition: The Flattened Commercial Space as Public Interface

[摘要] This project aims to translate our present cultural condition of saturation, flatness, and simultaneity (a condition found both in our screens and in our surroundings) into a new kind of public and commercial space. In order to produce such architecture, this project develops ;;windows” that serve as an interface—that is, a platform where one can actually find, access, or interact with different layers and worlds. The main components of the project are a series of in-transit shops, connected to a metro station, and a public plaza where windows allow pedestrians to access the transit infrastructure below.
