The 2050 Project
Using augmented reality, we brought spaces from Taipei to Osaka to Copenhagen right into your living room.
By 2050, two-thirds of the world’s population is expected to live in cities. This massive shift means that we have to rethink how we provide housing, care for the elderly, and conserve and produce energy. The 2050 Project is an exploration of creative solutions to the challenges of urban living. We tell the stories of innovation by highlighting unique buildings in eight international cities.
