DOMESTIC HORIZON

My thesis study tackles with the problem of “Growing the City, Shrinking the Footprint”. In cities that are growing even taller and condensing even smaller, I wanted to create a system utilizing an AERIAL PEDESTRIAN NETWORK system, namely WALKWAYS IN THE AIR to lift the DOMESTIC HORIZON; to create a CITY ABOVE GROUND, and to expand street life on the ground.
