The typical answer to the question -- we had to design 1,040 apartments -- would have looked like this: 24-story height limit given by the planning authorities, 12 towers with nothing but residual in between -- a very tight system that, although the tower isolates you, it doesn't even give you privacy, because you're so close to the next one, that it is very questionable what the qualities of this would be.
典型的答案是—— 我们必须设计1040间公寓—— 外型会像这样子 : 根据政府法规，会有24层的楼高限制， 12栋大楼，剩下一点点开放空间， 其它什么都没有—— 相当拥挤严密的系统， 虽然大楼可以将你与其他人分隔开， 但这根本不能给你隐私， 因为你离隔壁邻居相当近， 所以盖好之后的公寓群质量堪忧。
