beautiful, well-functioning cities often naturally mimic fractal geometry, using repeating patterns to create networks of streets, public spaces, and buildings that adapt as needs change. in contrast, the rigid, top-down plans from the 20th century, like Le Corbusier’s designs, often failed to create vibrant city life. They focused too much on uniformity and architectural consistency but ignored how cities constantly evolve and need flexibility. to build more resilient cities, urban planning should: 1. Embrace fractal principles to support organic, flexible growth 2. Focus on networks of public spaces that connect buildings and build community 3. Use technology & decentralized systems to guide growth while staying adaptable to change http://emergenturbanism.com/2007/11/19/complex-geometry-and-structured-chaos/

So you're telling me the truly innovative 'line shape' isn't rewriting urban planning for generations to come?

I also really like the idea of the 15 min city where, regardless of which quarter you live in within 15 min distance one should have all the things one needs for daily life such as groceries, doctors, schools. Of course, to the places like concert hall might be a bit more, but having all the necessities covered within walking distance is a huge benefit imo
