Dezign is a place where i share my passion with the global community. One day, i hope to make a mark on the world of design and create something unique, something life changing, and something that will change the way we live for the better. That is my dream, and i am Matthew James Ward. xx

Beijing architects MAD have designed a skyscraper for Chongqing, China, with gardens at each level. Rather than consider the project vertically, the architects envisage a stack of floors, each slice shifted horizontally to create spaces for gardens and patios. The 385 metre-high building will be called Urban Forest.

Personally, i think this is just crazy and slightly pointless. If we’re going to promote being green i think there are better ways to do it than just build yet another sky scraper in China.
