why does the island settlement layout give classism and separation. It's like take the worst of a suburb and trying to force it into a city

Planned economies never work. Planned cities will never be as successful as advertised. The only chance that one can successfully make a Planned city is by accomplishing 3 things first. 1. Continuously be purging (firing, retiring, ect) corrupt or inept government officials from their jobs/offices. 2. Keep all forms of crime under control with the goal of eliminating it. When there is no crime, it is a lot easier to convince people and businesses to move where you want them. No business or family will want to remain in a high crime are. Look at California or New York City for examples. 3. Build and maintain the infrastructure in such a way that will encourage people to voluntarily move to live or work. This is due to it being cheaper, safer, and faster. If you successfully accomplish these 3 things and can maintain it, a planned city can be created and survive. The instant one of these 3 requirements fail, the system will begin to unravel.

wow

FYI “antennae” is for animals; “antennas” is for electronics.

I think they should make the gotham cathedral in 1989 batman into modern skyscraper

Remmber how well this worked in thr Soviet Union?

Zooble from the Amazing Digital Circus

The tallest building should be measured by occupied floor, not by an added "antenna" or "spire".

That image of the park with minimal grass or dirt but filled with bricked area just makes it feel like we control everything and we made it all look like adult playground, you can parkour everywhere, which is sick

11:03 „Neither of them (Petronas/Willis) crack the top 20 today“…. poceeds to tell us how Petronas is 19th on the list 😂

And that building is probably just a dummy. It works, but probably not the main one. As insurance for another "terrorist attack."

Guarantee there’s men in suits going in there , if yous want information dig deep

This is the MIB building haven’t yous seen the movie ?

for me the beam at the top of skyscrapers doesnt count, just the building

He studied under Alan Conover? From "Alan Ruins Everything"?

Still don't care about their criteria

Meanwhile my talking point for why I like it: hehe spooky futuristic building...

So he is one of the main reasons why everything is so ugly today

Did Wright also come up with the idea of excluding let's say small groceries and pubs from residential areas? In that case he would have been instrumental to destroying the American city in general.

Success is the combination of talent and opportunity!

I think you beat around the bush a little in this video.

Hear me out guys… what if… this is crazy… we mount windows, that do not open, inside the building. So then when they inevitably crack, the pieces have some chance of landing inside instead of killing a passerby.

Zero carbon? That's a lie

V16 those are some beefy generators.

The Rat Hole has officially been covered up.

I was so happy that you covered the Japanese influence with unity temple, I did a case study on the temple for one of my ARCH classes at College of DuPage and when I was trying to find plans I came across an image of the two plans side by side. After a brief deep dive I was shocked with how similar the buildings were on the plans and overall. Great video, I always enjoy your work

Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud .. more $$ than brains. He got his Masters of Architecture from a Cracker Jack box.

EPCOT?

I always thought of Frank Lloyd Wright's works to be for pretentious people, but after watching this video (I didn't looked much into his biography before) I can't feel but respect for him because he would probably loved all of the attention he got, and will get overtime because of his timeless contributions to architecture.

Proof that living in a desert too long will bring insanity.

This is just a bullshit cover for the Saudis to seize land. This joke will never seriously ever begin construction. Mark my word.

Why did we listen to these communists???💀💀 mies was bad enough, but this guy straight up lost his mind

I was born in 1983. This video speaks to me on a spiritual level.

Wright's ability to manipulate three dimensions in his head is no less impressive than Mozart's ability to manipulate musical ideas in his. Wright fully designed Falling Water in his mind and drew it on paper in a single session. Yes, all those other things were necessary steps along the way, but without his special ability he could not have been what he was: one of America's greatest artists.

Be a hero, become an Edward Snowden!

"This one bedroom apartment just ain't cutting it for us anymore..." *gestures to an entire production facility green screened to look like an oh so personable teensy lil bedroom*

Urgh, so narcism and nepotism. Surprise.

What a waste of overground space, it would be better for it to be underground.

2 misspellings and then a really lazy mispronunciation on ONE graphic. Is this a joke? A way to get comments like this?

we used to have sash windows that prevented this

This is so well presented and put together. Thank you.

It already failed 😮

I bet it picks up every text call multimedia activity within Chicago and the surrounding suburbs

As an architect. Yes. It will fail. I specifically had a class in college about urban models from the 19th century that failed horribly. There is a city model that works, look for garden city by le corbusier. Save space with tons of big, tall buildings and allow useful nature to grow back every other city block. But you can't earn billions with real estate speculation, by giving people good places to live. Every single urban problem you know has a proven solution since the 60s, but we are denied them.

Permaculture is humanity's only hope.

Seems like the first people to come up with the first grided city plans are the people we should be listening to instead of everyone else.

Architects and Planners are very good at thinking and drawing very logically taking every aspect into consideration … EXCEPT … They seem to think of People as Bees or Ants that have no individual personality or thought process. In Greater NYC Metro I have seen many of these types of “Plans” which start out alright but after 20-30 years simply no longer function as planned and usually become undesirable, low rent slums &/or ghettos but certainly don’t live up to the original concept.

Yeah … this guy probably thinks that “the Line” city/building in the MidEast was a “Great Idea” … even though it barely got started before it stumbled to a stop. This is just another way to try to make Agenda 21 more palatable. Notice a high reliance on the term “Collective” … Oh yes … a Socialistic willingness for all residents to … “cooperate”.

0:46 Because what are they going to do? worship the building? There's not even a nuclear explosion yet. It just looks like they wanted to make the building look weird and quirky
