Ideas promoting greater use of technology, better integration with the environment, and even the construction of floating towns at sea have all been investigated and put into practise.

Here are seven planned cities from around the globe that fundamentally alter how urban life is organised. Smart Forest City Plans for a wooded smart city near Cancun, Mexico, aimed to
