Welcome Home

We think about cities like products:

Hardware + Software

Inspiration: Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture are building a high-density, car-free "satellite city" for 80,000 people from scratch in a rural location close to Chengdu and plan to replicate model in other parts of China.

More Inspiration: Masdar City, Oslo, Stanford Campus, Cornell Campus

People are open to new options Millennials and retired baby boomers don’t want to live in the suburbs People want to live next to their friends Urban walkable cities and lyft-able neighborhoods are becoming too expensive But… existing cities have very strong network effects.
