   i often wonder how radically different architecture would look in an ideal society. would we continue to have skyscrapers, apartment buildings, large city centers, etc? or would things be more spread out?

      i assume malls would become bigger, more fully featured. parks and hospitals and other QoL-related services/places packed in rather than just whatever can make money. things would become more centralised, and malls might even become the center of a community

         malls were initially a communist idea that was perverted into some sort of capitalist money-making scheme, so

            idk, it seems like it could either way. ether communities getting more spread out and homogeneous with other communities, OR perhaps becoming more tightly knit and focusing all their efforts in one small area for convenience and accessibility.

            or maybe a bit of both. or something completely different. i guess the draw of an ideal society would be people doing whatever they feel suits their lifestyle best. there'd be so many different ways of doing things.

               i guess the thing i'm wondering here is...how would all these different lifestyles/communities interact, which ones would remain most popular/dominant over others, which ones might even come out on top as being the scientifically proven healthiest lifestyles for those that partake in them?

               and how much of an ideal society would be shaped by factors outside of that, like curbing global warming, protecting against natural disasters, preserving wildlife/habitats, at the cost of our own desires?
