The Langtou Experiment showcases the recent effort in revitalising the ancient village of Langtou. It features large scale models of the village and documentaries about its built and natural context, as well as interviews with key stakeholders. Everything is housed within two plywood cases, which is both a safety measure during transportation and, once deployed, a podium for presentation. This approach, embedded with the ideas of motivation, diversity, and sustainability, echoes the core objective of the Langtou Experiment itself.
