Sitting here trying to chill on the couch at 10am on a Saturday. Over the back fence is a dog that barks constantly whenever it’s left unattended, and some toddler in a nearby apartment block has been throwing a screaming tantrum for the last 15 minutes, which also happens regularly. How’s the serenity?

Edit: The reference

    They are, although we don’t really use the term condominium in Aus. I know they’re not really what you’re talking about, but I pointed it out because I thought it was a nice example of the ziggurat design you mentioned. They’re pretty upmarket and probably hideously expensive as well. They’re on a hill with views of the city.

      thats cool. I like density but it fine its a rich one. honestly all real estate has become expensive anyway. Its just hard to tell them from like some goofy la mansions or something. I feel like for actually living space the ziggurat is ideal. Dome is ideal for efficiency but if you want multiputle units with a bit of outdoor space and such I can’t figure out a shape better than the ziggurat. I mean granted real highrises have to be towers but even then I like when they level it and have some higher level greenspace and such.
