Undefined Factory

Yiming Guo

Supervisor: Dr. Jan van Schaik

The project is led by a question: whether architecture can abandon its functional constraints and exist. It is well known that buildings with specific functions often have inherent patterns and stereotypes, and users are also given fixed roles. However, this proposal will start a discussion and use the three existing inherent architectural models to reversely derive a new result that is also universal.

In this result, the role of the user will not be restricted. This is the undefined factory.

The undefined factory liberates the citizen's identity, the building no longer labels the user, and the ambiguity of the citizen's identity prompts a re-examination of the publicity of the space. The extracted prototype will evolve according to this criterion to reflect the expansion of civil rights and intensifying the occurrence of public events.

The undefined factory is a challenge to functional architecture: deconstruction and reorganization, discarding the original attributes, and then giving new spatial concepts. Emphasize the use of equality here, ignoring the limitations taken by citizenship.
