Smart Factory City:
Reimagine the Future of
Taobao Village
The smart factory city envisions an alternative mode for the development of Taobao village, loosening all the planning relations. It tries to trigger the villagers to create and transform both their spaces and products with the ground floor as an enlarged courtyard space. It is not only a smart factory for products, but also to generate urban space without pre-determined typologies for living and production.
