SMART CITY
1/1
We always aim to make life better. Once we gained certain living conditions for ourselves, our attention takes other people's lives. We live our dream well-intentioned to help others and to make their lives as good as ours, blindly following our thoughts and ideas on how decent living conditions should be.
However, I keep asking myself if everyone wants exactly this "ideal" according to our opinion life? Or, by doing this, we try to unconsciously build an ideal society that resembles a utopia? But this concept might also remind dystopian society.
In my fake advertising, I offer an ideal village to start a new life for those who became homeless. My the Smart City village offers accommodation, lectures, workshops, jobs, and all the other facilities addressed to integrate homeless people back to society. But does everyone who ran from social life want to come back?
