A Simulacra of Place: Architecture Mimicry and China's UrbanizationHow does architecture reflect urbanization, and how does urbanization shape architectural development? In China, this dynamic manifests through "duplitecture"—the replication of European and American townscapes within Chinese cities. Through this lens, the work explores the relationship between architecture and the rapid urbanization of modern China, raising questions about the future of the "Chinese Dream."
