Experience China's Pyramid Apartments, Inside Like a Massive Maze.

- Hi everyone! Today I will take you to visit a pyramid apartment in China. It is located in Huaqiao Town, Kunshan City, Jiangsu Province, which is adjacent to Shanghai. This apartment is well-known for its unique shape, but it has also been controversial.
The design of this apartment was created by M.A.O., a Japanese architecture firm. The design is called a "stepped-back design" because each floor steps back from the one below it. This allows each floor to have a garden-style balcony, but it also has some drawbacks. The interior ventilation is inconvenient and the lighting is poor. In addition, the apartment has over 1,000 different floor plans, almost all of which are lofts. This makes the interior ventilation, fire protection, and pipework design very complex.
So let's take a look at this amazing building together!

The interior of these buildings are perfect place for a horror game like Silent Hill
😄 Shooting horror movies with time
My thinking was a gang movie and this place is headquarters for a complex crime business. Like, over here is where we torture people, money laundry, deals go down but the areas are different by how much money is involved. Too big for the police to control...lol.
Do it in VR also have read 3d real surround sound no ambient music
Yes, silent hill 4 apartment world
Exatly
This concept is anti hookups, anti Uber eats, anti pizza delivery, anti visitors, period! They’ll never find you!
Then perfect for me 😊
Good, people need to get out of the house more 😂
@@Mira-ri7vs 100%! In pretty much all Asian countries (Japan, China, Korea, Vietnam, etc) including SE Asia and India regions, we’re almost leaving our house every single day to sit down and eat, or going to retrieve groceries for homecooked meals. Not many (if any) places will deliver, and the streets can be too way too traffic-heavy for “Uber Eats.” Even for the elderly. If you live in pretty much any apartment building, you should be expected to be leaving your house to get a meal cause no one is going to bring it to you. Delivery has almost mostly been a “western concept”…
As for hookups, that’s on them…lol
This apartment building is very interesting and is a “social” concept for sure!
@@Annzuu-bu6ue And, that’s why Asian people live longer, because they aren’t as lazy as others.
All asian countries and people are beautiful and the architecture have always been second-to-none. 💕💕 Love that!
Love from Aussieland by the way! Cheers!
@Annzuu-bu6ue my God. Go to China for once. Delivering food to your house is literally everywhere. Many electric scooters everywhere for that. Hahaha your not in line with reality.
nightmare of every amazon deliverer
Go to the store and stop using stupid corrupted platforms.
Спасибо за видео. Удивительно много пустого неиспользованного пространства. Всё тёмное и мрачное. Я бы не хотела там жить.

This is a concrete jungle. Not a tree, a shrub, a flower or grass in sight. No birds chirping or flying about. No sight of children playing. Lots of empty stores and echoes. It's impersonal and anonymous. Places like this soon become rundown and neglected.
I would give up the will to live if I had to be there.
Look again for the greenery 😊😂❤ how much do you need 😊
The biggest positive here is the crazy amount of natural light each household gets in these units. Seldom do you find that in a standard multi unit building. The greenery can be improved if potted plants were introduced in the common areas. In the private balconies, it’s really up to the residents to give it all character. As for the stillness and quiet - some folks love that over the hustle and bustle of a busy street.
@@reckonerwheel5336agree make my own greenery..Ivy hanging all over my balcony with all the natural light is what I need and it has that inside apartment..I’ll green it up all over..I’d live there if need be..my favorite places in China are the people that live in mountains as high as the sky..On top and in the mountains themselves..blows my mind.🌟
this is why the world loves Japan..they don't have to build huge structures, they always put plants even in the narrowest alleys.....this country is like North Korea..they build to be seen by the world, and then everything falls down in ruins. 5 years
This place looks spooky to me I can’t imagine walking round and round at night in this place just to get to my room😂
Mein Eindruck: Düster , kalt , ohne Leben , beklemmend.
Ja genau....ein Disaster❣In Bayern hatten wir eine schoene Terassenwohnung nur 5 Stockwerke hoch...Terassen waren von den einzelnen Besitzern wunderschoen angelegt Pflanzen, schoene Terassenmoebel etc. Das war schon in den 70er Jahren.
Elegant und gemuetlich von innen und aussen. Den Ort kann ich nicht benennen.
China hat schon zuviele Dinge von uns kopiert. Alles fake und unaesthetisch in China.
Dieses Gebaeude koennte man gut in ein Gefaengnis umwandeln...denn da kann sich kein Mensch wohlfuehlen. LG aus Canada in meine Heimat.
You said it ! !
Où sont les ascenseurs ? Merci
Its so quiet, and hardly no people out and about. No grass, flowers, etc. Very cold, lonely, depressing.
It's a new place,people are yet to move in. The greenery are upto every unit owner.
I don't know about u folks but the whole thing has lifted my heart. The coldness, the concrete, the small size of the apartments, the scale. humanization erased in a functional and productive society where only profit counts. This building is sick and drags its residents into this darkness.
I would love to see a similar scale in Singapore to compare and see what make those building livable.
Thanks for your work on this channel. I really love the concept. Keep it up!!
You confused me so do you like it or not? 😂
The video 😅.. not the building.
@@romainbey Gotcha! 😆👍🏻
Greenery & water features, or lack thereof. All the empty spaces need to be filled with plants, and I think that would make all the difference to me. The grey upon grey upon grey of it all, and that endless concrete looks dead, unfriendly, depressing and lacks everything that's good and calming in this world. It seems utterly void of life and happiness.
@@SeaBear77 learn the history if China of killing off birds and shit because they thought birds destroy their crops.. birds are essential for a lot of things in nature. Go to China u wont see any birds in the sky. (Really)
Вполне подойдет для тюрьмы. И атмосфера подходящая, депрессивная. Немного решеток добавить, и готово.
видимо вы не сталкивались с поиском жилья для аренды, после Московских хостелов такие апартаменты кажутся дворцами.

Lots of cracks.

IDK where you are, but China is worse than most. We build cheap in the US, but they built fast and hazardous outright. We were the 'wealthy' in Shanghai and our 10 yr old high rise was crumbling at the foundation.@@luohao2321
Look at that smog and austere environment. Dystopian nightmare.
Разве можно жить в таком месте? Это же как тюрьма
I am not fond of this design; the lower levels do not have privacy.
It’s ok, those are for the poor people (in Canada at least, the higher the floor & the better the view, the more rent/sale money they can for a unit). Putting up a cloth gazebo or building a pergola with covering would make a lower unit cozy & private.
But have sun
@@patriciadrexel5055 I admit THAT is a good point.
agree with you..
You forgot some people like to be openly seen
Похоже на 6езyмный город из игры stray )наверное дизайнер курил что то очень забористое )
Вот это муравейник 😂
😂😂😂🐜

Sad and dark. I wouldn't like to live here
Living there will cause severe psychological issues.
Would have Liked to see more of the inside on an 🎉. You were pretty quick with that part. Most of the “living” there. Happens in the apartments. Would love to see the kitchen, bathroom etc. Just a thought.
You cant because most is just empty shells and nobody living there... ur not very familiar with these kind of things in China. Its just empty shells to look good.
外観はダイナミックで凄く、綺麗だが、中国・海外クオリティーというか、施工自体が雑なので、経年劣化が早期表面化しやすい。
ですね。。。
Finally, China is the first nation that has entered the future! Salute to the Chinese superhero government. I wish that our Indian government and leaders could undertake initiatives like this, but the people of India face unfortunate circumstances." We Are So Unlucky🥲
🌈COLOR! I just figured out what’s missing! Why not paint the retail shops one color…the food establishments another…the offices…the apartments…you know, and so on… AND, put in some grassy areas and plant some trees…plants, drinking fountains, swings, slides, etc. Considering the drab buildings and polluted skies all around, these additions would help considerably!☺️
Pourquoi pas tout raser, et refaire des maisons chaleureuses tout simplement
The whole point of the structure is to provide homes for some of China’s massive population!
ゆっくりとスロープを降りていった先に見えてきた建物を支えている柱の細さにビックリ😱
そんなに建築年数は古く無さそうなのに共用部分の壁とか破損しているし…ちょっと不安な建築です。
A totally unique design! Thanks for taking the videos and sharing this with us!
14:50 Когда послышался детский смех - это место перестало выглядеть зловещим. Чтобы там стало уютно нужно больше детского смеха
For those interested in this concept, look at Habitat 67 in Montreal, Canada, designed by Moshe Sofdie for the Worlds Fair in 1967. It is far smaller than this complex, but the concept is quite similar.
exactly, but this looks way cooler
It baffles me that anybody would feel an interest in such a horrible thing.
C'est absolument une HORREUR .. comment vivre dans de tels immeubles, des tonnes de metal, de la grisaille partout, des murs sales, des escaliers, des escaliers, des escaliers., aucune intimité .. de la tristesse.. et au bout LA DEPRESSION. !! non vraiment impossible de vivre, ne serait-ce qu'une seule journée dans un endroit pareil !!!!
This building has a unique design. I love it because each room can have the balcony like this. Thanks for sharing.
i belive inside are many rooms even without a window or not?
Thanks for showing us! When was this built? Alot of the plaster, paint, edges are cracking and crumbling…terrible build quality especially if it’s recently built... is it tofu dreg?
Made from cardboard
Смотрится устрашающе!
Да, как то холодно, страшно неуютно. Жутковатый домик. Потому, наверное, никто там жить не хочет.
This concept and architectural style is suited for areas with great natural scenery like beach resorts or mountain getaways so the occupants can take in all the surrounding natural beauty.
Me parece genial además que se ahorra mucho espacio, la ideas me gusta mucho
I agree with you. Chinese don't make any big buildings without any relevance.

既に二十一世紀の九龍城砦といった趣きがあります。管理がきちんとなされないと、本当に九龍城砦にななっちゃいそうですね。

外側や一階のケンタッキー，スターバックスだけは体裁を保っていてもいざという時に住民や客が脱出出来なさそうで怖い。
プライバシー0のバルコニーを眺めて洗濯物干しのローブや片付けていないごちゃごちゃした様子が見えるしいきなりハイソな生活には慣れないんだなという感じw
暑くて湿気が多い割に高額な部屋，日本人なら買わないでしょう。
中国ではバブルが弾けて給料の全額を住宅ローンにしてしまう暴挙を後悔している人民の様子がニュースで伺うことができます。
果たしてこの珍しい住居群も例外ではなく実際に住んでみて不便さの方が多いかも。
それともその前に住んでいた場所よりはいいのでしょうかね。
This building looks scary.
Wow.interesting👍
I love getting a peak! Thank you!
Totally gives me the creeps!
Same for me❣A Disaster. 😨🙄
Какое-то запустение и захламление. Похоже, фараоны покинули пирамиды...
A lot of cracking going on in those apartments 😮
Where is the people?
They left. 😂 this place is the perfect location for a horror movie.
Rapture? 😮😂😊

Superb structure. Keep on progressing.
Dystopia: the apartment
The buildings are sprawling and gloomy outlook. Unsuccessfully done.
So interesting, thank you!
Удивительно то, что никто из тех, кто восхищается этими домами, не написал, что хотел бы там жить. Судя по комментариям, жить в этих тёмных, мрачных, сырых домах, с уже облезающей штукатуркой и появляющейся плесенью (посмотрите внимательнл видео) никто не захотел жить. Я уже не говорю о жутком эхо, даже голос ребёнка снизу звучит как гром небесный. Я представляю, какой безумный грохот будет стоять, когда все эти десятки мотоциклов будут выезжать с первого этажа на улицу. Единственное достоинство этих домов - оригинальный внешний вид.
I mean, yeah open terrace is great and all, but this just looks horrendous. Especially from the back.
Still very interesting.
Thanks for showing us!
Yes, I'm worried that someone is tailing me.
@@CN_Walking For showing ugly architecture? That's sad! Are tourists mainly left alone and they just want to control the locals?
Are you Usng technology to protect yourself online? (VPN, Tor, etc..)
Keep it up!
見た目はすごいが、大雨が降ったら排水経路が複雑すぎる、雨の降らない地域なら良いかもしれない。
Que buenos departamentos y que por su forma creo que no quitan tanto la luz solar y no hay tanta sombra, serian ideales para construir en las zonas de playa y no tan cerca del mar !!! Muy bueno ademas de tener los negocios y galerias en la planta baja y ser una opcion muy comoda y donde las madres juegan con sus hijos y no hay peligro latente !!! Felicitaciones .
I’m sorry but the shop named “GOOD-ish” gave me a severe case of the giggles, too cute! I’d go in there in a heartbeat. 😂
И ковры с балкона трести на голову других
Those architects were tripping!
Thanks for the great video! 👍
It's a really cool idea! Imagine it with a fresh coat of paint, green landscaping and a pool below, and plants, grills and personalized adornments on each balcony. In the apartments, the blocky looking low walls framing the stairs to the second floor would be opened up with railings.
so much better than linear long buildings without proper balconies. every apartment is having their own private veranda
real cyberpunk feel :)
Das is beaengstigend. Ich will da nicht leben. Man kommt sich total verloren vor
Green, green, green! Please keep China green! We have found the ways!!!
So cool, with everyone getting a balcony. And not ridiculously tall like some buildings.
Уже всё замызгано и обшарпано. Кто всё это моет и содержит? Эти лабиринты и переходы, входы и выходы, тусклое освещение и мрак. Ужас.
I like the architecture and efficient design. The blend of commercial and residential is efficient and provides living needs in walking distance. It has character. It does seem to have a little bit of minimalism/brutalism design in some areas, but not a bad thing just efficient oriented. Seems like there would be good energy in a residential complex like this. The walk-through reminds me of playing a game like Halo in a dystopian city. Unfortunately, this particular complex has signs of tofu-dreg construction.
Yes, the quality looks terrible.
I totally agree. It looks like a nice design and idea, but construction and material quality looks terrible.
They needed happier colors or something, I get the dystopian vibe too. I’d like to see something like this if the Japanese built it, bet the vibe and quality would be off the charts! 👍🏻
@@charlottesmom Efficient Design? You got to be kidding. My dog would not want to live in this place!
@@sonjagatto9981 Sweetie you were replying to the OP not me…I said it looked dystopian, the OP mentioned efficient design…😆
Wow😍
Me encanta ver tu contenido, te veo desde México, saludos.
Woo... Good design! So I can jump from the top of the building to the ground just like walking a staircase in five minutes, no need to take a lift😅😅
Every time go down the stairs will lose a pair of knees. 😂
Watch out for red balls and giant purple springs. If they hit you, you'll lose a life and have to start back from your apartment.
how is this abomination a good design?

Человейник!
The quality of this bad bad BAD imitation of Habitat 67 is horrifying. Shoddy construction, cheap materials poorly installed, hideous color palette, zero maintenance of the concrete, there are cracks and water leaks *everywhere* on both exterior walls and inside the apartment shown. And then there are the failed, empty storefronts and painted over graffiti. UGH.....I love modern architecture but this is a dystopian nightmare.
Don't show your ignorance du##y 😂 you haven't even visited this place. China has the biggest number of modern cities than the rest of the world combined. You better worry about the homeless tent cities in the US 😂😂
Architecturally, this maximizes natural sunlight for the same building footprint. The elevators are not inclined and are in the interior walkways that brings everything together ... brilliant ideas.
Reminiscent of Moshe Safdie's *Habitat 67* .
I agree. Great concept just poor execution on construction leaving it undesirable to live in. It has unrealized potential. Would be amazing to see this concept in another country.
I get more depressed when I see the slum area in Indonesia, India, many other places. This is great. Clean, quiet and organized. Maybe I am wrong.
Dude, thank you so much for the walking video footage and I really appreciate the frankness in your description about some of the building’s issues. For the sake of the families living there, I hope these issues won’t be catastrophic and somehow, someway these people can eke out happy lives there.
Спасибо огромное что снимаете и нам показываете! Как будто попутешествовала:)
A private person's nightmare.
Przerażające.
wonderful
все очень необычно и интересно...дом как буд то из фантастического фильма😀😀😀
занимаемый объем колоссальный, а жилые помещения маленькие, причем занято пространство не столько балконами сколько внутренними полостями, которые не играют никакой роли, плюс проблемы с дождевыми стоками, вода течет по стенам во многих местах
It's very unique. May I ask where are all the people? It looks as if it was made for thousands of people to shop, eat, & live in, but it looks like a ghost town. This is so sad.... I really would have liked to have seen some of the apartments along with the kitchens. Thank you for sharing this. I find it wonderfully interesting to see how people in other places live.
It's coming to a town near you.
Saranno edufici superbi per gli architetti, inadatti e con grandi problemi sociali x viverci.
Sorprendente, saludos desde México!!!
This is reminiscent of the brutalist architecture of the Barbican in a very 21st-century way. Also, seeing upside down houses is pretty trippy. I get why giving people outdoor spaces so important and why the design had to take place the way it did. I love outdoor spaces more than interiors. I’m so glad I fell upon your video
Idk why but ever since I visited this resort in Spain I've loved the idea of these massive, arcology-like, pyramid structures. I wish we had more architectural experimentation here in the UK. Terraced houses, for all their positives, do get a bit uninspiring after a while.

Brilliant idea, every balcony overlooks the one below it! So its great for community talking, shit for privacy!
architecturally it’s very unique and provides much for the residents… I would really like to see natural plants and greenery all throughout it though… it’s feeling just a bit too sterile as is.. the soft neutrals, greys, white and beiges provide an excellent canvass for plants….. greenery and flowers, trees, etc. would soften it and nurture the souls.. maybe several water sculptures placed around the mezzanines also, to, again, engage the senses and break up the monotony of all the concrete..
Where are all the Residents ? I see NOBODY.
@@HermanWillems 经济低迷房地产倾塌,现在没有人敢随便买房了😬

I get the feeling it is not finished. The poor construction makes people feel unsafe and either did not move in or they moved out. There is potential with the concept for a greener scenery.

Just fantastic. Much better than Heatherwicks tree apartments. Also this design owes alot to early Moshe Safdie. Look at Habitat '67 in Montreal.

率直に、この建造物を設計した人は凄いと思います。惜しむらくは、山の斜面を覆うような防災も兼ねたものだったら、物凄い設計と、建造技術だな、と感心したのですが、残念ながら、観た感じでは危険そうな建物ですね。下層であればあるほど汚く、ヒビ割れ、危険が迫っているように感じました。
