The future is not a distant, glowing vista waiting for us; it is an active, living process that has already begun in a tree we preserve today, a path we forge, or a neighborhood we listen to. Moving cities beyond technological rhetoric and illusions, Prof. Dr. Savaş Zafer Şahin pens his 'Urban Future Design' framework for peyzajMAG readers reenvisioning urban environments centered on homo urbanus through participatory collective intelligence.
