Brixton High Street: urban design for robots
Posted: January 23rd, 2011 | 1 Comment »
An interesting project by Kibwe X-Kalibre Tavares:
“These are a collection of images of what Brixton could be like if it were to develop as a disregarded area inhabited by London’s new robot workforce. Built and design to do all the task humans no longer want to do. The population of brixton has rocketed and unplanned cheap quick additions have been made to the skyline.

Why do I blog this? designing of an urban environment (fictional or not) to accomodate robots seems to be a rather interesting brief. Surely some good design fictions can be built from there to reflect the possibilities of the future(s). The project blog is full of interesting material.
