Skyburbs are a combination that seems to combine all of the positives of suburban and city living while leaving behind cookie-cutter monotony and characterless city concrete.
Imagine cutting the grass or playing fetch with your dog 25 stories above the street (might want to set the electric fence level to Temporary Paralysis). Who wouldn't want all the amenities offered by life in the suburbs coupled with the desirable location of life in the city? Check out more images of the Skyburbs created by Tzannes Associates' Mark Gazy and a colleague in the gallery above.
