The development of human civilization has led to a more convenient life, but also worsening environments, causing heat pollution, and an ever growing exhaust emission. This proposal mainly aims to purify the air by using the void spaces between buildings and buildings in the city, minimizing chronic diseases or deaths caused by poor air quality. Utilizing water collection and greening to generate electricity and to minimize the impact of urban heat island effects. Our uniqueness lies in the form of the structure, rather than being a tower, we opt to a design in the voids between buildings.
