************************************************
INFRASTRUCTURE: Public obligation for basic provisions, to private participation for sustenance and risk distribution (commercial and political), to eventually being seen by private entities as investment opportunity, to cities that increasingly being seen as test ground for different infrastructure technology products (mobility, energy etc.), to circular infrastructure asset and services (optimisation, end of life-cycle usage, heat recovery etc.), to captive (solar) to off-shore (wind) to off-grid (P2P), to connected infrastructure/ home/ everything, to “all sorts of” infrastructure-as-a-service (mobility, hardware, software etc.), to customised infrastructure service/ experience (through blockchain)
ECOLOGY: Taming and reclaiming wilderness, to green as
buffer, control and protection, to green as leisure, to green and open as
statement of equality and inclusiveness, to green and open as barometer of
liveability, to green, blue and open as resilient system (e.g., allow to
flood), to autonomy (e.g., urban farming, urban food islands, seed bank) to
rewilding (e.g., wild meadows, bee-hives and pollination)
HOUSING [& COMMERCIAL]: Community efforts, to class
divide, to institutions getting overwhelmed accommodating workforce and
matching infrastructure and amenities, to reliance on private actors filling
gap, to private actors seeing opportunity for investment (real estate), to
specialised actors and instruments (financial, mortgage, brokerage), to socio-economic
stratification, to suburbanisation, to architectural innovation and
experimentation (going high, prefab, modular, parametric), to entity level
sustainability promotion (e.g., green rating, subsidies), to individual
environmental awareness (carbon footprint, energy visualisation), to co-working
to co-living spaces
PUBLIC FACILITIES AND SERVICES: From community interaction
(town hall), to law and order (court of justice, prison), to maintaining peace
(law enforcement) to administer (e.g., taxation) to managing day-to-day
operation (e.g., modes of transportation) to meeting community needs (public
parks, market places), to focus on inclusivity and equity, to involving private
actors to fill gaps and increase quality of services, to private actors offering
services beyond basic requirements, to private actors offering niche premium/
paid services to privileged, to emergence of service integrators, to services
on demand, to virtualisation of services, to services in a parallel universe
(metaverse)
