In the urban era the people gets closer and everything gets compact. The cites once grown horizontally now starts its verge vertically. The place of living demands the amenities like space for recreation, work, commercial shopping etc in hands far distance. The world-renowned architect “Le Corbusier “has given his contribution to the mixed-use building with his unique design philosophy and methods. The upcoming starchitects fly with colors when they deeply know the need of society and work for it.
The greatest challenges of our time is the population explosion; mass urbanization; climate change; environmental degradation; social, political and economic change; and the rapid advance of technical innovations.
The future of humanity on this planet relies on the collective benefits of urban density; reducing both land consumption and the energy needed to construct and operate the horizontally dispersed city. Tall buildings must now be the vehicles for creating increased density not just through sheer height, but by connecting multiple layers of the city. Physical urban infrastructure, circulation, greenery, and urban functions traditionally restricted to the ground level would all, ideally, continue up and into the building, such that the buildings themselves become an extension of the city: a part of the two-dimensional horizontal urban plane flipped vertical.
We ask you to chose a site near to your locality not more than 1500sqm. We suggest you to consider the climatic and geographic factors. The building bye laws or local building rules can be neglected. The concept and design must be original. We ask you to look into the functional as well as aesthetic part of the design.
