To
enhance the notion of process (Evolution is process), I am
presenting the Hyper Building as phase one of a development
which goal is the establishment of an urban settlement for
about one million people in a sunny desert region.
This would be achieved by the
construction of three additional Hyper Buildings. If one
Hyper Building were to succeed, there would be tangible
financial advantage in "cloning" it
with improvements experience would suggest.
I must make clear that the proposed design is in its conjectural
stage : one kilometer square by one kilometer conjecture,
to be precise.
If it turns out to have merits, serious
work could be contemplated to move into a feasibility stage.
