Urbanisation is one of the most decisive - yet often overlooked - global challenges of our time. While only 10% of the world’s population lived in cities in 1900, that figure is now nearly two-thirds. This rapid shift has reshaped how we live. Megalopolis explores the future of cities and the crucial role they play in addressing global problems. Cities can drive positive change - but uncontrolled growth risks leading us down a ‘sure road to hell’. To solve the challenges ahead, we must solve them in our cities. Now available in English, this translation brings Peter Butenschøn’s insightful journey through urban futures to a wider audience. A Norwegian architect, landscape architect, and critic, Butenschøn has long been a prominent voice in architectural discourse.
