This collection of February 2015 architecture ideas shows that many architects, designers and artists are indulging their imagination and creativity right now. There are a lot of concepts that range from fantastical to futuristic, which tee up a year or two of innovative structures that could push the boundary of architecture as people know it today.
From futuristic desert cities in Dubai that focus primarily on self-sustaining lifestyles to skyscrapers that are made out of precarious stacks of livable cubes, the February 2015 architecture ideas address a range of needs and wants around the world. Many of the concepts revolve around environmental initiatives while others hone in on the issue of large city populations. Although grand in scale, the February 2015 architecture ideas are also quite practical.
