| The 2022 Most Populated Cities in the World Posted: 30 May 2022 12:30 AM PDT  SHIBUYA TOKYO JAPAN - JULY 29 , 2018 : Pedestrians people crosswalk around Shibuya district area in Tokyo, Japan. Image © Lifestyle Travel Photo/ Shutterstock Half of the world's population now lives in cities, according to UN-Habitat's latest reports. While this number is set to increase to two-thirds by 2050, urban challenges are growing exponentially, making it more crucial than ever, to transform our cities. Annually, the world population review assesses the growth of cities and the number of residents living in metropolitan areas, to understand global evolution trends. In 2022, the list of the top 20 most populated countries remained similar to the 2021 edition, with a slight change in numbers and positions. Tokyo kept its status as the world's largest city, with 37 million inhabitants, while Delhi and Shanghai, followed in second and third positions. Comparing the results to the 2021 edition, the only decrease that can be seen in the top 20, involves both Japanese cities, Tokyo and Osaka. The rest of the list had, on average, a growth of 1.8% in the total of people residing in metropolitan areas. In fact, African cities Kinshasa in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Lagos in Nigeria gathered the highest rates, with respectively a 4.39% and a 3.54% increase in residents in 1 year. The largest city in the American continent is still Sao Paulo in Brazil, followed closely by Mexico City and Buenos Aires in Argentina, further down the table. In Europe, Istanbul is the most populous, with more than 14.5 million residents. This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |

| The Authentic Feel of Rain: New Technologies in Showers Posted: 29 May 2022 11:45 PM PDT  Cortesia de Dornbracht Taking a good shower can be an extremely relaxing and pleasant experience. Far beyond the simple (and important) functions of removing dirt and sweat and balancing the bacteria present on the skin and body, the feeling of well-being that a bath provides can make us think better, come up with ideas to solve problems and relax our muscles. To make things even better, this experience can be enhanced through a well-designed space, with suitable materials, well thought out lighting, and components that provide a good waterflow.

| Interior Design: 34 Kitchens in Mexico Exploring Different Spatial Layouts Posted: 29 May 2022 10:00 PM PDT  Casa E&A 64 / Taller Estilo Arquitectura. Image Over the years, interior design has evolved according to the needs that arise, but above all, according to the experiences it seeks to evoke in the user. Over the last two years, we have witnessed a radical change and a special interest in this subject because the pandemic forced us to pay specific attention to the configuration of the places we inhabit. This brought about much more holistic designs that seek to address the wellbeing of the user, combining colours, sensory experiences, technology and natural elements that promote health.

| The First Dynamic Atlas on Access to Housing: The New Web Tool Developed by 300.000 Km/s Posted: 29 May 2022 09:30 PM PDT In the framework of the UIA 2022 International Forum "Affordable Housing Activation: Removing Barriers", the Consejo Superior de los Colegios de Arquitectos de España (CSCAE) has developed a useful tool: the first dynamic atlas on access to housing. This atlas brings together on a single platform more than 4,000 financial, urban context and development indicators from the main international organisations, from official and non-structured sources, making it easy to understand, read and interpret. These organisations include, for example, the World Bank, the Ibero-American Development Bank, the International Monetary Fund, and the World Health Organisation, among others.
