Urban dwellings. The suburban trend isn't necessarily dying, but a clear migration of populations back to the urban centers has been observed in recent years. The ones that can design/develop beautiful and individual spaces in the urban areas, rather than on their peripheries will do rather well. The demand for apartments, condos and lofts won't necessarily fill this demand in its current form - I think a new concept with more sensitivity to individual space requirements and lifestyles is called for. For a precedent of where I think there's a real demand, look at Salieri's Arcosanti - developments like this I think will prove quite popular in the years to come. . .

The appeal of living right in an urban area and still having most of the things that appeal about suburban living (adequate space to call one's own, etc.) is hard to beat if it's done properly. If this catches on, it will result in a lowering of density in urban centers I believe, but it will be a more pleasant and ultimately more sustainable way of living to the residents.

Something to consider anyway. . .
