Last Thursday (May 29) "Line13 Superlinearity" workshop visited China´s leading landscape architectural office: TURENSCAPE Design Institute. Alejandro Cabrera Camprubi invited the students to have their in-work findings/presentations and offered an insight into some of the strategies and design principles underlying TURENSCAPE´s projects. We took Line13, stopping at Shangdi station (Zhongguancun District) and, with a diverse range of transportation means available, headed towards the office.
