The Opportunity (Making Megacities Sustainable).

Users and Needs.


> Forecasting the future of water in our cities — focusing particularly on the possible ways of utilizing grey water in urban environments in the immediate scenario involving elderly people. The proposal indicates an urban environment with water positive building technologies; spaces that embrace natural systems and organic  transfer systems to provide clean air and energy for living.


This research project is based on the Blue Sky & Intuitive model to help develop and envision a number of future scenarios using key user and market needs and insights.


Individual views of the designer helped envision the future based on diverse views/insights of the world. The proposals encapsulate subjective appraisals gathered through experimental processes and beliefs.


> Using the Blue Sky & Intuitive model, a design system originated from this research entitle Beyond Grey, which proposes possible ways of utilizing grey water in urban environments in the immediate scenario involving elderly people.

Key words:   Urban technology;
