A city underground in the former mine
100 thousand people will be able to live under a glass dome: Eco-City is a jewel of architecture of the future
LONDON - An underground city for 100 thousand inhabitants, in the middle of nowhere in the vast Siberia, where Until a few years ago the miners mined diamonds from the bowels. You questo il progetto di Eco-City 2020, un luogo che ancora non esiste ma che già fa parlare di sé. L’inizio dei lavori non è ancora deciso, per ora in Rete circolano solo modellini, foto, descrizioni tecniche : tutta verticale, sarà ricoperta da una enorme cupola di vetro per riparare dal clima rigido della zona e portare all’interno energia dalla luce.
Una città sottoterra nella ex miniera 
CITTÀ VERTICALE - Although it is only a project whose implementation has not certainty, Ab Elis Russian designers have thought of everything and have studied the life of the underground community in three sections that grow vertically. There will be farms, forests and farms constructed in height, recreational spaces for socialization in the community, areas with houses built on terraces, a little 'as in difficult terrain in Italy, for example to the Cinque Terre. The city will push up to 525 meters underground, so how deep the mine today, and expand to the entire diameter of the quarry today to 1,200 meters. It will be covered by a huge glass dome, equipped with solar panels to heat and energize the inside and allow light to filter inside.
DIAMONDS - The space of the open pit mine of Mir, now disused and officially closed as early as 2001, is the second "hole" dug into the earth's largest in the world (the first is a hollow copper Utah) . Here and in the areas of the Siberian republic of Yakutia (or Sakha Republic), where the winter is so hard to reach 25 degrees below zero, by Alrosa, the company in the hands of the Russian Government and now in the process of privatization by of its debts billionaire who holds a de facto monopoly on diamond mining and that it produces 40 percent worldwide. Around mining (diamonds, but also gold) were born small villages where they have settled the Ukrainian and Russian workers, natives, especially young people, who challenge the harsh climate and that today could become the first inhabitants of the city of the future.
TRUMAN SHOW - The city that does not exist yet is one of many projects in recent years have imagined entire villages enclosed in geometrical structures, where everything is contained in a giant futuristic self-contained housing: the case of ' huge pyramid proposal for New Orleans, which should rise on the banks of the Mississippi. But the concept of the city enclosed under a glass bell is also dear to the movies, and recalls such films as The Truman Show or his parody of The Simpsons feature film, as is the subject of science fiction plots. The latest novel by Stephen King, The dome, for example, tells of a town covered by a dome and next year will become a television series produced by Stephen Spielberg.
