We all love to fantasize about the future. What will our planet be like in 50 years? How will the climate change? What will we become? And, of course, one of the integral questions in this chain is the question: where will we live? What is it like, the city of the future?This question is not new. Scientists, writers, architects, and probably each of us have thought about it. Now let’s get acquainted with some of the most interesting projects of the city of the future and, of course, share our impressions.
1. A city without cars
This idea is far from new. After all, everyone knows that cars cause a lot of harm to the environment, but China is the first country where the idea of building a city in which there will not be a single car arose.The city will be designed for a population of about 80 thousand. All residential complexes will be located in the city center, and offices, service centers, shops and other facilities will be built up from the complex and further to the periphery. The city will have a park infrastructure, thanks to which residents will be able to get to its outskirts in just 10-15 minutes. Getting around in such a city will be done by bicycle or on foot.
According to forecasts, the city, which, by the way, will be called Great City, which means Great City, will use much less water and electrical energy. And its emissions will be almost 90% lower than other cities of the same size.
2. Low carbon city
But the United Arab Emirates went even further. The city in the United Arab Emirates, Masdar, will not only be without vfiby, but it will also be missing skyscrapers. And the brilliant idea is that this city will completely do without conventional energy sources. Instead, the needs of city residents will be provided by natural sources, including solar energy, as well as wind energy, and geothermal sources. As a result, the amount of waste harmful to the environment will be reduced to a minimum.
3. An oasis city in the desert
Masdar is not the only city of the future in the UAE. If Masdar is a project that will be created from the very beginning, then Dubai is a really existing city, known to everyone. And now specialists from one of the leading architectural companies have created a project to reduce carbon emissions into the atmosphere.It is planned to build 550 buildings for various purposes in Dubai (from residential buildings to public institutions). And the energy for these premises will be generated using, attention, 200 square kilometers of solar modules. The city also plans to introduce transport that will not pollute the environment.
4. A city with empty buildings
Another project to “remake” an already built city into an environmentally friendly one is the project of the Kjellgren Kaminsky Architecture bureau. The idea of the project is to fill the city of Gothenburg, which is located in Sweden, with dense buildings. And to save even more space, it is proposed to place areas for growing vegetables, solar panels and windmills on the roofs of houses. This will help meet the needs of residents at minimal cost.
5. Vertical city
Architects in Australia have proposed a rather extraordinary design. According to their idea, the city of Melbourne will develop not horizontally, but vertically, both up and down. And they plan to build a transparent cover over the city itself, which will be designed to accumulate solar energy and grow fruits and vegetables. Movement in the city will be carried out in two ways: underground and in the air.
6. Pedestrian city
Another city that plans to phase out cars is San Juan, Puerto Rico. The city is experiencing a decline in the number of residents, and this has become the impetus for investment in the city's redevelopment project. According to the project, beautiful park areas will be created in the city, and cars will be completely excluded from use. This will make the city attractive to both tourists and permanent residents. The project will cost approximately one and a half billion dollars.
7. A city with a center of relaxation
The Greeks also became “infected” with the idea of stopping the use of cars. A competition was held for best project on changing the city. Such a project was found, and now it is planned to create a “green corner” in the city center, which will serve as a place for recreation and walking. Also, minor redevelopment will be carried out, as a result of which it will be possible to move to different parts of the city on foot.
8. Glade city
The next "city of the future" in China is Shan-Sui. The city plans to build many skyscrapers to increase population density. But that's not all. In the skyscrapers themselves they plan to create various public spaces and green corners where skyscraper residents can relax and escape from everyday worries.The implementation of such a project will also make it easier to travel around the city itself. Residents will be able to quickly and easily reach various areas of the city on foot or by transport.
9. 3D city
Another project to reduce the building area and increase population density is the NeoTax project. Its essence is to build multi-storey buildings not only vertically, but also, starting from a certain height, also horizontally. This will help preserve green spaces and the environment, as well as provide housing for a larger number of people using a minimum amount of space. Such houses will be built below according to the principle of traditional high-rise buildings, and above they will branch in different directions. Quite an original project.
10. Stone Town
An interesting project was developed by the Belgian architect Vincent Callebaud for the Chinese city of Shenzhen. The Belgian was inspired by natural piles of stones and proposed building houses in the form of stones set on top of one another.This will not only save space, but also reduce the role of transport. You can also install a solar module on each “stone wing” and grow a vegetable garden.
As we have seen, there are many interesting “city of the future” projects, some of which may come to life in the near future. And, perhaps, their large-scale implementation will help us preserve the Earth’s resources and improve the state of the environment.

"Green Engineer"
Equipment :
2 screens on wheels in the shape of houses, shovels, a watering can, a wheelbarrow, flowers, trees, swings, car models, beads, a hat, a toy dog, a “no littering” sign.
The song “In Every Little Child” is playing in the recording. A boy comes out with a ball in his hands.
- Trofim:
Mom let me go for a walk,
But I don’t know what to do with myself.
I want to play with my neighbor Mishka,
How can I invite Mishka outside?
Mishka, oh, Mishka, come out!
(Mishka looks out of the window wearing headphones with a joystick in his hands, the sounds of a computer game are heard)
- Misha:
I'll answer you honestly
It's not interesting in the yard.
Why kick a ball with you?
I'd rather play here.
(The screen rotates against the background of a musical screensaver. The bear is sitting in the room playing computer games)
- Misha:
On the computer all day
I'm not at all lazy to play,
I'll hang out in chats
I don't feel like going for a walk.
- Mother:
Misha, go eat some pancakes.
(a boy with a ball walks across the stage)
- Trofim:
It's been a half hour walk already
Maybe I should call Alice already
It will be more fun for me to miss her!
Alice! Come out! (Alice looks out of the window)
- Masha:
Mom won't let me in
He says it's in the yard
Hooligans just walk around
Everyone learns bad things.
I'd rather stay at home
And I'll look out the window.
(The screen turns, music sounds. The girl has a mirror on the wall in the background of the room)
- Masha:
I'm bored, I have nothing to do
Okay, I'll dress up
(music “Little Fashionista” sounds)
(the screen unfolds. A girl walks with a bag)
- Trofim:
Oh, my friend Zina is coming,
He brings bread from the store.
Zina! Don't sit at home
Go for a walk!
(cars can be heard)
- Zina:
I would go outside for a walk,
But the cars take up half the yard
No matter how you look, they are on my way.
Do not drive in the yard and do not pass. (the girl leaves the stage)
- Trofim:
So year after year goes by,
Childhood will soon be over!
So from morning to evening
There will be nothing to remember!
Hey guys, general gathering! (children come out)
I’m calling everyone to the yard quickly!
Oh, let's all get together
Right here in this very place,
Let's set up a town.
So that everyone can play here.
- Misha: (pushes his glasses up his nose):
A strict scientific approach is needed here.
Let's survey people in the area.
Do children need playgrounds?
How can we create comfort in the yard?
- Zina:
There is another important point
We need a scientific experiment:
Choose a covering for the site,
Choose an irrigation system for the garden bed.
- (The girl takes out equipment, watering cans, a basket of flowers):
Girl1:
The site should be cozy, not cramped,
But also environmentally beneficial.
To protect it from dust,
We need to decide what to use for landscaping.
- (The boy comes out and puts out a “No Littering” sign)
Boy 1:
We'll put a barrier to the garbage here,
Garbage bags from the site out!
(A girl with a dog passes by)
- Girl 2:
Let's respect our kids:
We ask you not to walk here with dogs!
- Boy 2:
Big brothers and sisters, for you
We'll find a place on our site,
Together we can walk and play,
But just don’t break anything!
- Boy 3:
Before asking adults for help,
We need to assemble a model from Lego.
- Trofim:
If we all try, me and you,
We can build the site of your dreams!
(everyone gets to work, takes out swings, trees, flowers. They take shovels, plant and water trees and flower beds. Create the playground of their dreams)
- Girl 3:
Well, it's in my dreams,
What can we do now?
- Girl 2:
We will plant what we already have!
Maybe when everyone sees this,
They will also be drawn to beauty!
- All together:
Adults, you must understand
Children need a playground
To play! (parents come out and sing the song “In Every Little Child” with their children, the children dance)
Literature about the city has been growing for two and a half thousand years. The great physician Hippocrates brought together the experience of the functioning of Greek city-polises, outlining the hygienic rules for the orientation of streets. Hippodamus is credited with the invention of a regular grid of city streets, which has survived unchanged to this day. Plato tried to describe the ideal model of the city, starting from general philosophical judgments about the nature of interaction between people. Rome mastered the experience of the Greeks, generalized it and standardized it. Standards for the design of public baths, markets, amphitheaters and theaters were developed and reproduced, and these standards were embodied everywhere, from the Nile to the Rhine, from the Euphrates to the Thames, adapting to natural conditions.
City of the future – fantasy or forecast? “The greatest danger is posed by the Cities of the Future, which are dreamed up every day by city planners who consider themselves prophets. Like Wells, they bring into the future the conditions of today, only by exaggerating some of these characteristic features,” wrote the Italian architect Porcina.
Very groundless fantasies in the field of architecture are not uncommon. Leonardo da Vinci, who once depicted the ideal city, was considered a utopian, although he himself did not doubt that he was right. Leonardo's architectural ideas were picked up and developed several centuries later in 1914 by his compatriot Antonio Sant'Elia. The architecture of the future of Sant'Elia was also recognized as utopian until it was suddenly discovered that his projects, in which the large-scale structure of the city was radically changed, met the urgent requirements of our recent times
The city is one of the most complex systems, ever created by mankind One of the most difficult problems of urban planning is to create the most favorable living conditions for humans. It affects all aspects of a person's life; its solution is associated with a wide variety of issues - economic, social, political, medical, sanitary and hygienic, biological and geographical. An urban planner must also be an expert in spiritual culture, a psychologist - a “human expert”. One of the most important problems is the compliance of a person’s daily activities with his ideals and worldview. An architect must strive to create the most favorable conditions for human life, taking into account his needs and requests.
A city without cars The Chinese government has undertaken to build a city in which it will be possible to live without cars, having approved the Great City settlement project. The “Great City” is being built from scratch not far from Chengdu. The city will be designed for 80 thousand inhabitants, and any movement around it can be done on foot or by bicycle without any difficulties.
Its unique design will help you quickly get to anywhere in the city. The residential center will be located in the very center of Great City, with roads, office and administrative buildings around it. Thus, to get from the center to the outer ring of parks on foot, you will need to spend no more than 10 minutes.
Masdar is already being built from scratch in the middle of the desert near Abu Dhabi. Main feature the city will become completely independent from traditional energy sources. Instead of oil, gas and coal, Masdar will receive energy from the sun, wind and geothermal sources. This will make it the first zero-carbon city.
Green city in the desert Dubai is another city from the UAE that can become a “green” city of the future. Specialists created a project in which they used the world's main achievements in eco-construction. Their project includes 550 comfortable villas, educational institutions and organic farms, the energy for which will be generated by 200 square kilometers of solar panels.
“Green” city with dense buildings Architects believe that ultra-dense buildings are one of the hallmarks of the city of the future. Experts propose to turn the second largest Swedish city of Gothenburg into a city of the future. According to their plans, ultra-dense development and the use of roofs to accommodate vegetable gardens, solar panels and windmills will fully satisfy all the residents' needs for food and energy. In addition, such development will significantly reduce traffic and help make the city river the main transport artery.
Vertical city This is what Australian Melbourne could become in 100 years. The project demonstrates a huge metropolis, growing not in breadth, but down and up. To move around the Melbourne of the future, underground and air routes will be used, and a common transparent “roof” will be created over the entire city, which will be used to grow food, collect water and solar energy.
A city of pedestrians The Puerto Rican city of San Juan is another city that has decided to completely abandon cars. City officials, concerned about the rapid decline in the number of residents, are investing $1.5 billion in the redevelopment. The main task is to abandon cars and create beautiful pedestrian areas. The authorities expect that an environmentally friendly city with excellent opportunities for a relaxing holiday will attract both tourists and future residents.
Shan Sui Lawn City is a city with a large number of multi-functional skyscrapers. In each of them, residents and guests will have access to dozens of public spaces with pieces of wildlife for quiet relaxation and contemplation. The authors of the project believe that the future lies in high population density, because this will make it easy to get to any point on foot, by bicycle or by public transport.
A city made of stones Drawing his ideas from natural forms, Belgian architect Vincent Callebaut proposed a city of the future project for the Chinese city of Shenzhen. Each building, according to Callebo's idea, will look like a pyramid of sea pebbles stacked on top of each other. The architect emphasizes that such a design will fill the city with positive energy and will make it possible to equip gardens and vegetable gardens directly in the residential towers. In addition, the “pyramids of pebbles” will have wind generators and solar panels, and the high density of apartments and houses will reduce the role of vehicles.
Conclusion: What will the city be like by the middle of this century? This question needs to be answered, because unlike fantasies, the foundations of a real city of the future are being laid now. But it is difficult to answer. It is necessary to understand the very nature of urban planning, how models of the substantive, physical organization of urban space are associated with ideological positions, on the one hand, and with the economic and managerial rules of the game enshrined in regulations and standards of behavior - on the other.
