当代中国都市中的“奇葩”建筑

Fancy Urban Constructions in Contemporary China

我和一位建筑师朋友每次走过北京的北四环，他都会诡异地拖长声调说：“你知道!马巢两边的那幢建筑物叫什么名字吗？”“盘古大观？”“No，叫天-使人厦……”仿佛是生怕听者不解其义，他会形象地比一个手势，怪笑着说：“因为它是天上掉下来的一坨Shi……”

In contemporary Chinese context,we live in a world with 'fancy' architectures.But to be fair,these so-called 'fancy' architectures are actually popular media darlings.They might not be disgusted by ordinary people if some social justice issues implied in government projects can be removed.On the contrary,ordinary people will be much less joyful without nitpicking and mocking them.Academic architects and people with architectural background are always irreconcilable with freak works.The article explores the origin and characteristics of these Chinese fancy architectures and their western counterparts from the perspective of architecture and sociology,and it also gives an analysis of their impact on social development in China.
