Why forecasting?
4. 2050
“The merging of man and machine, programmable matter,
artificial photosynthesis, the ecocortex and the colonization of
space. These are all signs of changes that will effect us in the
future. They will interfere with the way we deal with major social
challenges of today and tomorrow, like climate change, global
shifts of power and new connectivity.”
[Horizon 2050 report, Stichting Toekomstbeeld der Techniek, 2014]

Even for a relatively young and modern city like Eindhoven
36 years is not that long. Imagine us 36 years ago…

109. Campus village
Eindhoven is not one megacity. It is a series
of campuses and villages. This is a unique
quality.
109
110. Mobility
Technology will lead to more efficient
mobility AND THE USE OF THE SPACE.
There is an opportunity to use the space for
creating a more livable city.
110
111. Water
As much as water is a threat it should be
a feature for the city, solving ecological
issues and giving a strong, special, local
character.
111
112. Living
Making people feel at home is more than
a provision of a house. Make a place for
internationals to form their own community
that adds a character village in Eindhoven.
112
113. Green
Eindhoven is known for its green, but lacks
a strong character. Attract innovative green
technology firms and use them to give the
Eindhoven citizens high tech green spaces.
113
114. Lighting
Eindhoven is known for light, but you
cannot see it. Use the knowledge base here
to express light in all of its forms.
114
115. This city is filled with top notch high tech
talent… why not make the city high tech?
Looking to the future is not about inventing
new models. Don’t change Eindhoven,
embrace it, enhance it!
