Busan lost its industry — and rebuilt its image.
Now design is not just an art, but a system of governance.
A city that once made ships now manufactures appearance.

What would you add to make a city like this feel even more futuristic—and livable?

Cities wouldn’t be static anymore. They’d adapt.
Transit patterns change? Just swap modules.
New tech emerges? Update components.
Urban growth shifts? Expand outward like digital Lego.

(3) Algorithmic accountability must become public infrastructure, just like water or electricity — essential for trust in #UrbanAI.

(2) Inspired by Richard Nelson’s classic “ #MoonAndTheGhetto” paradox, we ask:
Can #UrbanAI bridge the gap between innovation & inequality?

Cities are about to transform. With A.I. + emerging tech, architecture won’t just be buildings—it’ll be living systems. Adaptive facades that react to climate, streets shaped by data, and shared spaces that evolve with community needs. Urban design as organic intelligence. 🌐🏙️ #UrbanFutures
Coming Soon! A collection of over fifty short stories imagining cities destroyed by climate change and disasters, exploring adaptation, loss and the need for new ways of envisioning future responses to environmental challenges➡️ tinyurl.com/ystzemuy #TonyFry #ClimateFiction #UrbanFutures #preorder

Towards the end of his life, #WarrenMagnusson implored us to imagine radical democratic engagement “premised on the ‘open city’ rather than the closed nation”. Would that we'd heed that profoundly wise insight. #UrbanFutures #CitiesForPeople #RightToTheCity
Beyond net zero: Asian cities are building living systems that regenerate ecosystems and centre human needs. #RegenerativeCities #UrbanFutures #CitizenLed #PostScarcity
Can cities keep up with Brain Computer Interfaces?
In the latest Urban Radar, Tom and Beth talk with Simon Marvin and Allan McCay about what happens when tech merges with the human mind.
Could cyborgs have rights in the city?

Who are we really designing for? In #UrbanAIR, stakeholder mapping helps us co-create tools that are useful, used & usable — with real city actors, not ideal users. Inclusion, equity & relevance start with listening, mapping & co-production. 👂🌍

Cover of 'Transforming the Built Environment' with text on the side, "Together we can shape cities that are sustainable, inclusive and resilient" and a photo of a garden with someone working in it, in an urban environment.
A new report from The Club of Rome and @hotorcool: 'Transforming the Built Environment' calls for a radical rethink of city planning to meet today’s complex challenges. Systems thinking, not silo fixes.

📌 Wilson & Boateng (2018), Koźlak & Wach (2018), Odeleye & Umar (2021), and Yu & Xie (2024) all highlight the potential of integrating telework into smart mobility strategies and land use planning. But the institutional architecture is still lacking.

"In #architecture, we risk designing spatial MP3s: efficient but stripped of history, emotion, and richness. What gets lost when space is optimized?"
Built in #ComfyUI, shaped by research on speculative urbanism and image-as-argument

Smart cities sound clever.
But are they actually killing what makes cities great
What if we built cities that were not just smart—but wise?

A brutalist high-rise dominates the skyline, its vertical lines mirrored in the parked cars below. The raw, unpaved lot and graffiti-stained wall add a sense of urban impermanence, while a lone pigeon wanders in the foreground. A near-future cityscape caught between structure and entropy. © Veeren Chauhan.
Concrete Peaks – A brutalist giant rises over the city, its rigid facade echoing the geometry of a manufactured skyline. 🏙️
