The exigencies of a world in which temperatures,
sea-levels, populations, pollution and fuel costs are all rising, while
fossil-based energy reserves are falling, mean architecture must do
more to help in the creation of truly sustainable cities and buildings. Chicago-based Sean Lally leads a team of architects, landscape architects, engineers and researchers, saying that buildings of the future won't have walls and will instead consist of climate-controlled areas of landscape. So now, architectural education focuses on concentrating on sustainability,
climate change, environmental responsibility and renewable energy. The project, entitled Urban Forest, for example was inspired by the mountainous typology of the surroundings. Each one of the seventy floors is unique with a different abstract curved shape and layered slightly off-center from it neighboring floors. The floors give an organic and textured effect to the façade as it rises into the sky. In conclusion, Rather than continue to focus on maximising efficiency for [energy's] conservation and consumption, we must provide an architecture with lifestyles for the future that give us new worlds to strive for and realise.

Exp2. Final Submission
Marker is devoted to integrating itself with the entire sport site. The Base of the marker combines aboriginal culture (boomerang design) and new Australian culture. And the interlaced blocks with varying lengths explain how simplicity illustrates complexity. Finally, the big column jumped out from the blocks indicates the brightness of the future for all people.
Exp2. Parallel perspectives
(Chosen)
"Architecture must be as intimate as family member"+"Simplicity is the true measure of complexity"=Less is more and more conveys the relationship between life and nature.
Exp2. Two Concept
Olson Kundig
1.Architecture is the intersection between the poetic and the rational.
2.Architecture must be as intimate as family member.
3.Architecture is a movement and it transforms its surrounding.
4.Contradictory objectives; open to environment, yet closed to create privacy.
5.References homes as primitive places.
Buckminster Fuller
1.There is nothing in a caterpillar that tells you its going to be a butterfly.
2.Simplicity is the true measure of complexity.
3.Reorganizing the environment for prosperity.
4.Love is metaphysical gravity.
5."Nature is trying very hard to make us succeed, but nature does not depend on us. We are not the only experiment."
