Description:

Continuing on from progress made in project one, due to technological advancements and introduction of products such as interactive glass touch interface; work will progressively begin to be conducted from home or environments that stimulate higher productivity levels other than the stereotypical office environment.

Many vacancies throughout the city will begin to appear due to this change occurring; slowly the 9-5 working environment will no longer be a standard routine in which the CBD will begin to mold itself into a more livable and people orientated center.

This brings us to the purpose of project two in correspondence with the needs and desires of future citizens.  More affordable residential accommodation needs to be made for the lifestyles and interests of the upcoming generation Y, that provides the opportunity to work from home or other stimulation environments, to be in touch with a variety of services and importantly to have access to entertainment and relaxation spaces in order to obtain that community orientation.
