Designing Cities That Breathe

 

Designing Cities That Breathe


How we arrange buildings isn’t just about skyline aesthetics but it’s about comfort, health, and sustainability.
By rotating, staggering, and spacing buildings, urban designers can create air corridors that:
Channel prevailing winds through the city
Reduce heat buildup and urban heat islands
Improve pedestrian comfort at street level
Support healthier, more livable neighbourhoods
This isn’t only about design but it’s about shaping resilient cities for the future.

Imagine if every development considered wind as a design partner. Our urban environments could feel cooler, cleaner, and more comfortable.
What do you think: should wind comfort become a standard requirement in urban planning?
