| Summary: | Industrialism has affected our way of building cities, using the production line as a model for living. Our lives are divided into parts both in time and space, with zones for different activities, kinds of housing, and phases of life. Diseases related to a sedentary lifestyle and stress are increasing and we feel lonelier than ever. Can we think in a more circular way, respect planetary boundaries, and create possibilities for a healthier life for us and our planet? This project aims to explore possible strategies for a more circular way of building our cities. |
