FLOWERING TALENT

摘要

Forty people work for MAD in a converted factory, producing futuristic models beneath vintage wood ceiling vaults and brick arches, and that number is set to double. Ten projects are under construction or are scheduled to start construction this year. That will represent a big advance on the first two years of the practice when Ma Yansong and a few dedicated associates entered a hundred competitions, won a couple, but realised nothing. Their only completed building to date is a small clubhouse in a gated community at the north edge of Beijing.
