Skyburbia
PublicSuburbia, though attractive, has an utter lack of sustainability. Isolation from urban areas increases cost for transportation and waste management, while single-family dwellings are inefficient in terms of energy and water consumption. The majority of these problems stem from a low population density. Our proposal is to move suburbia into the city in the form of a skyscraper. This will increase population density and make the problems of waste management and energy efficiency much easier to handle. The Skyburbia project is a sustainable step forward that captures the feel of suburbia in a high-rise residential building.
