Ordos Museum by MAD




The Ordos Museum by MAD ARCHITECTS
Located in Inner Mongolia.

Its futuristic shell shape draws inspiration from Buckminster Fuller’s Manhattan Dome, encapsulating the museum upon a hill which still was desertic few years ago. The interior is even more complex with a canyon-like corridor, galleries housed like blobs connected by bridges, and an atmosphere where visitors feel as if they had stepped into the future. As a whole it symbolizes the connection between the past and the future, and has become the favourite place for local gatherings, giving new spirit to a young community.
