Project

Green megapolis

Year: 2023

Category: Landscape & Urbanism

In this project, I would like to share my ideas regarding the biggest issues, in my opinion, and how life and the environment could look like without them. I believe the greatest progress could be made by taking care of nature and finding smart ways to combine it with modern technologies.

War is a stopper of global development.

The biggest problem is war. It is the main obstacle to world development. Humans could make strides forward in making new discoveries, innovating, exploring new spaces and technologies, etc. But none of these are possible if individuals are not safe. No one is interested in human rights or minority protection if their house is destroyed, provisions are difficult to find, or medicine is no longer available.

People can waste their time and resources for destroying.

Alternatively, they can invest their time and energy into creating a better future, and a "Utopia" may come true. Why would some individuals prefer the previous state of affairs?

Green megapolis. Combination of modern technologies and pure nature.

In a reality without war, where people are focused on developing and improving their living environment and general conditions, the overall appearance of cities might look very different. For example, the perfect and comfortable living environment could be a balanced combination of pure nature and innovative technologies. Cities with a lot of vegetation, fresh water, modern skyscrapers and transport system, green tunnels and corridors for safe and fast connection.

Residence cluster.

It consists few floors for every living cell with full high windows an carcasses for green terraces around.

Grown structures.

It might be possible that in a perfect reality, humanity invents a technology for building construction or elements by growing them in an organic way. The architecture style and general appearance of buildings or structures would resemble those produced by nature, grown from the ground, cultivated with beneficial bacteria, or printed by 3D printers.

Interior of studying halls.

The education system is evolving alongside AI technologies. From a young age, students are learning about how to make our cities better, how to improve life on other planets, how to find solutions in crisis situations, etc. Interactive screens, smart spaces, modern robots, and exposure to nature make the studying process more interesting, attractive, and easier.

Studying spaces.

Areas where people and animals lives together.

I believe that in a real utopia, people would never harm any living being. Wild animals could coexist with humans, perhaps in designated areas similar to a park or contact zoo. People could easily visit these areas and spend some time with other creatures. Currently, there are many successful cases where people have formed friendships with wolves, lions, bears, and other representatives of wild fauna. All animals possess intelligence, and in a perfect reality, we would find a way to understand each other.

Green ways for animal’s moving.

Ways connect different green spaces or natural habitats, allowing animals to move freely and safely between them. These corridors could be designed to prioritize and protect the natural environments and ecosystems that they connect, while also providing safe passage for wildlife.

Desert to forest.

I would dream that the Planet would be more green, recovered and totally safe. For example arid and barren landscapes would be transformed into lush, green and more comfortable for living areas. This process involves a range of activities such as planting trees, shrubs and other vegetation, and improving the quality of soil and water resources.

lightbox

Desert in future.

The goal is to restore degraded ecosystems and increase biodiversity, while also providing economic and social benefits to local communities. Through the desert to forest approach, it is possible to combat desertification, mitigate the effects of climate change, and create sustainable landscapes that can support a range of human activities.

lightbox

Water treatment structures.

Systems that are designed to treat and purify polluted water to make it safe for human or environmental use. Combination of areas with water treatment plants, natural wetlands, bioretention basins and constructed pounds.

Do what you like.

In a perfect life, we would be able to do anything we want. Currently, in some countries, governments are providing financial support to their people with the purpose of allowing them to make great discoveries and reap benefits. In this context, individuals would not have to worry about basic things such as paying bills, or to staying at the office from 9 am to 6 pm and they would have more energy for something great.

lightbox

Be whoever you want.

In the best version of 2023, this would work due to the increased responsibility of individuals who would not have to resort to lying, sneaking or fighting with each other. You could choose any activity you want to do today, for example it is sky-surfing, flying around, being best family member, or just being a hero...
