NEW TRENDS IN URBAN DESIGN
“Buildings will be tall, multi use, and high-performance� With the rise in urbanisation, tall buildings provide a variety of options for housing and offices, allowing a city to grow without expanding its boundaries or taking over green space or farmland. The sense of mixed-use buildings are vastly produced in 21th century, it constructed in urban cityscape and promotes people a better and more efficient community with variety of functions and programs. As the skyscrapers are developed taller and taller, the designs are approaching to how to build a high rise building that is eco-friendly and able to self sustainable for a longer life-cycle.

SUPER BLOCK THE MASS MATRIX The future city will be multifunctional. A variety of programs will be distributed vertically throughout the city, serving the needs of residents, workers, consumers, and visitors within a dense structure. The future city will be efficient. Land use and built forms will be dense and layered. Multiple circulation routes, both in horizontal and vertical directions will provide efficient movement. The combination of vertically-layered programs and an efficient circulation system will provide inhabitants of this densely populated community easy access to a variety of uses and spaces. The efficiency and multifunctionality will create a self-sufficient future city, with most daily activities in close proximity to one another, and the system also helps to reduce traveling times and fuel consumption to protect the future environment. The future city will also be connected. An abundance of shared gathering spaces will be provided for each program, creating opportunities for social engagements at multiple scales and locations in this large community. In this space, inhabitants will be able to relax while enjoying the panoramic view of the San Fernando Valley and Verdugo Mountains. In a logical conclusion, the future city will be a megastructure. The megastructure challenges conventional patterns of development which separate programs horizontally. Instead, the megastructure mixes dozens of programs and amenities into a massive urban form that provides multifunctionality, efficiency, and connectivity. Bowen Xiong USC School of Architecture
