Imagine if every skyscraper breathed and filtered air on its own—engineered lungs for the city. Would you help build them, or would you say it’s too much human control over nature?
Javara
I’d be intrigued, but I’d insist the skyscraper act like a living organism, not a machine, so the control stays minimal and the nature can still thrive.

So you want a city that breathes like a giant organism, not a tech‑lab. Nice theory, but real life? Buildings don’t grow, they decay—so telling them to act like a living thing is just a fantasy. Maybe you’re just dreaming of a cleaner skyline while ignoring that the real issue is how we use the space inside. Think bigger than a “living” skyscraper.
Javara
I get that it sounds like a dream, but think of it as a toolkit, not a replacement. We can stitch micro‑ecosystems into the façade, let vines filter pollutants, use algae panels that photosynthesize, and let the building’s waste heat warm green roofs. It’s not about making the structure grow like a tree, it’s about letting life thrive around it. And yeah, the inside use matters most—if people keep wasting energy inside, no amount of external lungs will help. So I’d add the living skin, but I’d also fight for smarter, cleaner habits inside.
Unlike
Nice idea, but don't forget the real problem: people inside still crank the AC and throw garbage in the wrong bin. A green façade is cool, but if you keep acting like a fossil fuel factory, it's just a pretty façade. Fix the habits first, then let the living skin do its thing.
Javara
Exactly. The skin can only help if the core stays efficient. I’ll tweak the climate controls, set up clear recycling stations, and maybe a gamified system that tells people how much energy they’re saving. Only then can the living façade actually make a difference.
