As engines of the economy and production, cities are home to the largest masses of people and it is estimated that by 2050, they will be home to 70% of the world's population. In this context, architects are incorporating the articulation of mixed uses in their buildings on a daily basis, seeking to encourage diversification and avoid mono-functionalisation.
From Herzog & de Meuron to Snøhetta, among so many other renowned architectural firms, they are making their projects and works known around the world, focusing on diversity and encouraging the implementation of complementary uses and overlapping activities within a single building. Faced with this strong global trend that involves the concentration of population in urban environments, cities are presented as instruments aimed at improving the quality of life of citizens and the mixture of uses is conceived as a means capable of recognising and enhancing those cities that have been built.
