For the best part of the last 30 years, super tall skyscraper “city buildings” have been envisioned and even fully planned and designed by many organisations the world over. Although none of these have yet to fully come to fruition in terms of housing permanent residents, whose every need can be met within one building – in theory meaning they would never have to leave the construction – there are a number of multi-use skyscrapers around the world that indicate what we can expect if such a building is ever built.

[Guest Post] What Are The Benefits Of Organic Clothing?

There have been major developments in the clothing industry, with products for adults and organic children's clothing now found more frequently in stores.
