Architectural trends almost always reflects the historical development of mankind. What can change in modern cities in the next 10-20 years?
Below are the most unusual and interesting architectural and design concepts that can enter into a trend in the near future.

Why build boring concrete bridges, construction machinery if possible today allow you to create a truly amazing design? Company NEXT Architects proposed a very interesting design of the bridge through one of Chinese rivers. The structure consists of three separate crinkly footpaths outstretched over picturesque landscape.
The concept has won a national competition, and the bridge is already under construction.
2. Architectural trends – Rotating Skyscraper
Floors of the building subtly move – they make a complete rotation on its axis every 90 minutes. In addition, the skyscraper will be installed some powerful wind turbines that generate electricity for the tenants, and thanks to a special roomy elevators cars can be parked right at home.
While there is no information about when this skyscraper will be built and will be built there at all, but the concept looks impressive.
3. Architectural trends – Covered parks
In November 2013 the Russian Institute “Arrow” announced the winner of a national design competition to create a public park “charge.” It turned out the company Diller Scofifio + Renfro, who introduced the concept in the style of “wild urbanism”, “hybrid landscape where nature and man-made constructions are combined to create a public space.”
The park will be divided into four natural regions: tundra, steppe, forest and marsh, each will have its own microclimate, so that even the fierce winter inside is the same temperature. In addition, simulation of the wind and declared the cycle of day and night.
4. Architectural trends - The Invisible Architecture
Invisible built associated with science fiction, but, fortunately, attempts to create such structures have now. Take at least South Korea and its “Tower of infinity”. According to recent reports, on the facade of the building will be located a few cameras that will send images of the world on monitors mounted in the wall.
However, there are concepts and simpler, and it is shown in this image. This wooden parallelogram completely covered reflective film is worth it, by the way, $ 5,000.

This is a project to create structures of fungi, which can then be dismantled and recycled. More information – in our separate article .
9. Architectural trends - Imprinted on the 3D-printer interiors
3D-printers, more and more are beginning to be used in construction. It is fast, convenient and less expensive. For example, the draft Digital Grotesque two such printer printed the whole room (area – 16 sq. m.), Decorated with ornaments Cathedral.
According to the creators of the project, they want to create a type of architecture that would defy reductionism.
