Audi Urban Future Award: Building a vision - 2030


 'Cars and architecture are going to have to get to know one another rather better. Truly green mobility will depend on a massive supportive infrastructure in order to realise its full potential; charge points, specialist filling stations, more space efficient parking, intersection with public transport, congestion charging, etc. With all this in mind, Audi has taken the initiative and asked six international architects to conceive a city landscape for 2030 to examine how urban planning and architecture will change to embrace sustainable mobility.' - Wallpaper.com

Beijing architects 'Standardarchitecture' proposal sees the city divided into two, with controlled interior and exterior mobility. Outside electric cars will be the main source of travel, while inside electric cycles and 'Audi Bubbles' (a small personally adapted space that travels on and between the travel belts).
