Reimagining High Rises to be Self-sufficient and Nurturing Communities in the Sky
Reimagining the role of central business districts in adapting to the people shifting attitude towards cities in the next normal, designing use-neutral tall buildings, with a focus on reducing redundancies and re-appropriating existing buildings, creating novel hybrid environments, incorporating green and social democratic spaces, and integrating sustainable modes of transport is key. Vertical Cities provides a one stop platform to gain a holistic understanding of skyscraper development today. Witness leading architects and sustainability experts participate to engage and discuss the strategies and challenges to counter in creating livable urban communities.
“It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent that survives. It is the one that is most adaptable to change.” Darwin
