Ordos 100 is a construction project curated by Herzog & de Meuron and Ai Weiwei. One hundred architects from 27 countries were chosen to participate and each design a 1000-square-meter villa to be built in a new community in Inner Mongolia. The 100 villas would be designed to fit a master plan designed by Ai Weiwei.

its interesting the discussion throughout the movie keeps returning to the idea of the development as a zoo...
and that ending of a spectacular, spectacle light show with the closing note that the project as of Dec 2011 hasn't been realized says it all i think.
also cool that they whole video is online for viewing!
This is amazing. Thanks for posting.
Am I misremembering or didn't you participate in this? Or something? No cameo?
No cameo, thankfully, but yeah, I was there! Working for Keller Easterling Architects.
