Building buildings

An idea of what sort of building might become more common in 2100

Suburban homes on stilts to protect from flooding with built in greenhouses for small crops.


Stacked housing with large solar panels and wind turbines.
Roofing of one floor becomes a shared crop garden.
The pyramid structure is very strong making the building earthquake proof.


Half pyramid, half tower block. Large crop areas on lower roofs. Wind and solar on the top roof.
 Tapered octagonal tower built to resist extreme winds and earthquakes.

In my constructed future, the world has only gotten more hostile. Buildings have to become stronger and more self relient. Space has become more of a commodity but growing food for yourself is a necessity for many due to low income and rising food costs, so the garden has to occupy less space.
