Collected Visuals: This amazing structure presents architectural contrast at its strongest and reinforces the age old idea that in design, concept is truely king. Built by Hsieh Ying-chun (???),Marco Casagrande (??·????), and Roan Ching-yueh (???) in Shenzhen, China, Bug Dome is best explained here: The building is realized on a wasteland of a ruined building site in-between the Shenzhen City Hall and an illegal workers camp. The design is inspired by insects. The bamboo construction methods are based on local knowledge from rural Guanxi brought into the city by the migrating construction workers.
