The majority of the inhabitants would live in 1km high “City in the Sky” towers located at the center of the circular cells, while additional “Waterside” residential zones comprising low-rise townhouses would be located on the outer edge of the structure’s outer circumference. To take advantage of the cooler temperatures, the tower residences and services would be located at the top of the tower at an elevation of 700 m (2,296 ft), providing year-round temperatures of 26-28 °C (79-82 °F). As the population of the cities grow, additional cells could be added, spreading out like the water lilies they resemble.
The central tower would be surrounded by grassland and forests, while the outer circumference would adjoin marine forests, lagoons and beach resorts. The cells are designed to be completely self-sufficient in terms of food with the 1 km high towers containing a plant factory, while livestock and other farming would take place in “plains” also surrounding the tower. Seafood lovers would obviously also be well catered for through fishing the surrounding ocean and the marine forests.
