The Sky-Terra towers designed by Joanna Borek-Clement are meant to augment the cities of the future. These green skyscrapers add an upper layer to the existing cityscape, with public parks, pools, bath houses, amphitheaters, and athletic fields integrated into a network shaped like neuron cells.
Joanna Borek-Clement's Sky-Terra interconnected skyscrapers also have abundant foot paths and tiny streets to ease congestion. Her plan is for them to be constructed from modular parts that can be mass produced, thereby minimizing the use of resources.
