Shanghai Diaries_27/08/2019
"Four Neighbouring Villas were murdered by the city, with their bodies being consumed by social desires." The multi layered, extremely dynamic, urban morphology of cities like Shanghai can be mind numbing. The insane pace of urban development wipes out historical references faster than one can keep pace with. A big thank you to the two lovely people who gave me this book. Having seen Gurgaon transform from vast open fields with frequent mini tornadoes swirling up dust, to the concrete and glass jungle that it is today, makes me feel as if I've been static while the city has blazed past me. #shanghai #newadventures #explorechina #nonperiodicoscillations #morphology #urban #development #historical #architecture #design #gurgaon #static #phenomenology
