Miesto
Miestai pulsuoja begalinėmis galimybėmis, kai architektai, urbanistai ir vizionieriai iš naujo įsivaizduoja mūsų miestų kraštovaizdžius ir sprendžia šiuolaikinio didmiesčio gyvenimo iššūkius. Šios knygos tyrinėja, kaip protingas dizainas, technologijos ir į žmogų orientuotas planavimas gali paversti betono džungles gyvybingomis, tvariomis bendruomenėmis, kuriose klesti milijonai žmonių.
