How to design the ecologically-sensible sustainable city:Sustainability has become the most prevalent challenge in policy and business – the world is looking for answers, and the time is ripe for visions beyond single-issue solutions.
Results that address essential changes in how we live, work, produce, play, and prosper. To achieve this, the benefits of a multitude of solutions are combined into a single holistic and adaptive model. Orchid City is all about this new way of living. We will discover this evolutionary concept, designed by Except.eco in The Netherlands: Orchid City is a blueprint for a fully self-sustaining city where all social, environmental, financial, and material needs are met. It’s climate-adaptive, net-positive, and genuinely regenerative. It’s an open community, full of interaction with the rest of the world and an inspiring place that offers a new perspective to a healthy, exciting, and livable future. Best of all, it is affordable and realistic and can be built right now. While Orchid City functions fundamentally different from anywhere else, Orchid City is a place we can build and realize today.” Presentation: Tom Bosschaert, Except.eco |
