The life in the city is just like riding a merry-go-round. People who live in the city are always busy doing something that goes nowhere, like a merry-go-round. Sometimes, it gets really boring and routine. Or, sometimes, it is a place full of festivals and events. Getting off the treadmill of work, for life’s merry-go-round is good for some.
Merry go round city is a situational model which represents modern or future citizen’s life based on movements. It is constructed based on the mobius, main structure and infrastructure, which mainly control horizontal movements, such as transportation, pipe lines, and communities. On the other hand, each cell has its own vertical movement which connects daily activities. These two movements are interconnected, weaving together. Most of the time, people spend their time on vertical movement within each cell and it is enough for the day. However, any cell can survive without horizontal movements.
