| The future of city living may be hitched to high-density developments – but if so, they don’t have to be bland, minimalist concrete blocks jutting into the sky or crumbling Judge Dredd-style dystopian megatowers.
A contest has brought together the best and brightest ideas for the future of skycraper design, and the recently announced winners of the eVolo 2017 Skyscraper Competition demonstrate some of the creative possibilities of sky-high habitation.
The top honours go to what initially looks like a vertical farm – but there is more to the Mashambas Skyscraper, designed by Pawel Lipinski and Mateusz Frankowski, than meets the eye.
