I went to Design Museum where the exhibition "Richard Rogers+Architects From the House to the City" is held. I had interest in his approaches to sustainability in relation to my extended essay, particularly the solution for rapid urbanisation which requires new forms of Housing. He came up with Industrialised Housing system can "quickly and flexibly accommodate growing population, while providing the environmental responsibility and levels of comfort". It seems that this design responds to the issues of 21st century and client demands briefly, still it is not enough as a substantial solution.
I also found a model showing layers of a city such as transport, energy, waste and sunlight. Great demonstration of analysis of city context.
