Ziwei SONG's Skyvillage connects the four major districts — downtown, Chinatown, Echo Park, and temple Beaudry — sprawling geometric structure of the giant. Currently there are 27 acres of unused land around the freeways that connect the neighborhoods, leaving enough space to build the structure, which is described as " architecture of the body. "





Skyvillage wants to encourage - free lifestyle by putting all and Sundry that residents would like to have, inside the translucent giant.
