4) Theme Exercises Week 2 + 3

How can distributed architecture benefit Australia / Canberra?


- Increase density / reduce urban sprawl with transit oriented developments


- Provide recreational / entertainment precincts and meeting places to areas which lack them


- Increase connectivity between cities


- Canberra is a highly serviced city that requires the bulk of its goods to be imported. Perhaps urban / vertical farming can affect this trend


- Canberra is the 'nerve centre' where decisions are made which affect the rest of the nation. What would be the effect of distributing the decision making authorities throughout Canberra or to other Australian cities?


- Can distributed city centres act together to deal with environmental disasters / climate change?
