Life in Nature car-free garden cities by Gaetano Fornarelli | Redesign the World | Dezeen

The next finalist in Dezeen's Redesign the World competition powered by Twinmotion is Gaetano Fornarelli, who has proposed creating car-free cities covered in trees to improve people's health and reduce humanity's impact on the environment.

Fornarelli's Life in Nature project aims to bring the benefits of the countryside to the city.

Cars would be forbidden, with strict city planning ensuring that all essential services are within walking distance for people. Long-distance travel would occur via a public transport system of small electric vehicles either underground or in the air.

This would allow nature to take over the parts of cities that are usually clogged with traffic.

In Fornarelli's vision, some agriculture would be moved within the cities in the form of large urban farms.

Located inside geodesic domes, the farms would be places of social exchange as well as sites of production, which people would use in a similar way to shopping malls today.

Redesign the World is the ultimate design competition, which called for new ideas to rethink planet Earth to ensure that it remains habitable long into the future.

Launched in partnership with Epic Games, the contest asked entrants to visualise their concepts using architectural visualisation software Twinmotion.
