21st Century Guide to Life is the fourth publication in Woods Bagot s Public series. It is a thought-provoking insight into how the design of our cities and buildings shape the way we live. Leading consultants and Woods Bagot lifestyle specialists take a look at work, play, travel, shopping, home and the desire for luxury and rejuvenation. A singular definition of a twenty-first century urban life is impossible to define. The modern metropolis, from London and New York to Dubai, Hong Kong, Tokyo and Sydney, is a melting pot of many cultures, demographic profiles and lifestyle preferences. However, one issue prevails. How can we raise the liveability of our cities? How do we meet individual and community needs and raise the bar on quality of life? How can the built environment relieve the pressures of modern life and respond to the increasingly blurred lines between home, work and play? How do we complement the needs of commerce and work with stimulating or restful entertainment, recreation and travel experiences?
