Over the course of last year, I saw a lot of interesting architecture designs consisting of futuristic buildings and structures, however, the “Superstar” is the craziest that I have ever seen. You don’t have to see many pictures of it to realize that, but we have a bunch of them so prepare to be amazed.
The Superstar was designed by Chinese architects MAD and it’s destined to become “A Mobile China Town” with shopping malls, Chinese food restaurants, and other cultural exhibitions. The project will be presented at the 11th Venice Biennale in the “Uneternal City” section where 12 architects are introducing their ideas for “an anonymous suburban area of Rome.”
The new China Town will be a floating city which will move all around the world and being a modern city of the future it will also be green as it’s going to produce its own energy and all the waste will be recycled. The Superstar will provide housing for 15,000 inhabitants who will enjoy health and sports facilities, drinking water lakes, and a “digital cemetery” among others.
The Superstar will be able to “land at every corner of the world” and it was called the Mobile China Town as it’s “MAD’s response to the redundant and increasingly out-of-date nature of the contemporary Chinatown.”
Check out the pictures and tell us what you think, also there is a video at the end of the post. I really like this design, but it’s just so futuristic and I’m afraid that it won’t ever see the sunlight.

Sounds like a bunch of bullshit to me. Oh look a spiky star. Stare in wonder and don’t ask too many questions.

I agree with both of you. If these people plan on creating this, I would consider theminsane, or, if they could ACTUALLY build this, genius. Untill you find away to make a floating, star shaped city, I will side with the later. The overall idea and design is intresting and nice to look at, but most likely not possible.

Sorry, I know I put latter, which means I think they are gunius. My bad, i really hope nobody thinks that, because my opinion is that they are insane.

Awesome! I’d like to see that become a reality. Bring it to Australia!
