Italian architect and designer Michele de Lucchi discusses Earth Station, his two-year research project of envisioning architectural communal spaces where people can learn, interact and reflect.

These futuristic buildings designed for unique, awe-inspiring sites around the world aim to promote personal freedom and show the enormous potential of technology on human development.
