Urban life is humankind’s biggest experiment to date – our cities are constantly evolving and adapting to climate and economy. The cities we have today are not necessarily the ones we need, but big and small innovation is rethinking visions of urbanisation. Together with pioneering think tank SPACE10, we present future orientated design that enhances quality of life and makes our urban spaces more vibrant.

As technology and urban life edge ever closer, The Ideal City explores the ambitious actions and initiatives being taken across the globe to meet tomorrow’s demand in clever, forwarding-thinking ways. From waste management to housing, the book uncovers what is being discussed at the forefront of urbanism through expert essays and profiles.
