Resumé

The main purpose of this article is to

enlighten the architectural design process.

This is done through the description of

how the Danish architect office Møller &

Grønborg created a proposal for a new city

in the North Western part of China. The

city is called Sun City and is planned to

be realised within the next 30 years. It is

a city the size of Aarhus housing up to

300.000 inhabitants. The article is divided

into two parts. Part 1 is the description of

the practical creation of the competition

entry to the Sun City competition. Part 2

is an attempt to reformulate the understanding

of the architectural practice on

the basis of how architects actually work

(Sun City competition works as a case

here) and on the basis of actor-network

theory as it is formulated by the French

philosopher Bruno Latour.
