Urban Design
The goal is to 'recycle' surface space. Relocating utilities, transit systems and waste treatment plants to underground shelters liberates valuable surface space for other uses. The underground shelters provide cost-efficient climate control while newly 'recycled' surface space is ideal for residential and recreational use. This is a vision for the future with a new perspective on urban design.

Underground Shelters
Underground shelters conserve existing surface space by utilising the unused space below the surface. Underground shelters make for environmentally friendly, energy efficient homes as well as versatile industrial spaces. The building of underground shelters is generally referred to as geotecture, often employing other technologies such as terratecture (cut-construct-cover) and lithotecture (tunnelling).
