Add to ORKGWe have lost the war with energy. Our post World War II dream of a suburban utopia based on cheap abundant energy is dead and has been rendered unsustainable. We have created a vast territory of simulated autonomy. This territory, still tethered to our energy networks, is a relentless swath of meandering streets flanked by banal serial repetitions of roof and shell stuffed with the latest inventions of modern electric living. Designed with a seemingly unlimited energy supply, the paper-thin structures have zero regard for efficiency, orientation, or even climatic region. They manifest themselves to be nothing more than a nuclear semi-hermetically sealed environment. What is the future? The future of this territory is the reality of the post...
