Nick Plovits, Planned urban environment (URBAN 2026)

Often we think of the built environment as a gritty city, shiny buildings or expansive ticky tacky boxes. This picture of a built environment (including the waterways) does not follow the dominant paradigm but still a dramatic capture of the centre of an urban environment. The picture was taken as early summer storms roll in from the mountains and sun beams stream across the city.
