Future of the City Award – 3rd Round – Textile

Mario Lombardo asked 8 designer around the world: “What should the surface of a city look like?”

Our cities are still defined by urban structures established many centuries ago, sometimes dating back to Roman times, more often shaped in the Renaissance and the Industrial Revolution. However, our world is changing rapidly. Surfaces are always the result of the underlying principles. Are the solutions of the past still viable today, especially in face of technological advances of post-modern societies such as the internet? 8 textile artists from around the world were challenged by this topic and showed us their vision of the future. Now it is your turn to show them which one has done best. Vote for your favourite work by clicking on the vote button below.
