A new show to look into possible ways of living in the future and how the cities of tomorrow are being imagined today has been launched by CNN.
This television programme called The Next Frontier is hosted by CNN Business Correspondent, Rahel Solomon, and it involves talks with architects, designers, and others working on the future way of life.
In the new six-episode series, which made its debut on December 10, 2022, on CNN International, the anchor examined the topic of How We Will Live.
From soaring skyscrapers to subterranean designs, the ways cities will evolve in years to come are already being planned today. The host met the developers behind the world’s first floating city, the architect of some super tall skyscrapers, and the designer rewilding the heart of a historic city centre.
“Imagining all the ways we’ll live, travel, and work in the future has been an exciting exercise,” said Solomon. “Seeing how people are using this technology today and incorporating it into designs for the future shows how a new world of possibility is already being prepared for.”
CNN International SVP and Global Head of Features Content, Ellana Lee, said, “The Next Frontier leverages CNN’s storytelling expertise to uncover the untold stories of the future, highlighting the ways our lives of tomorrow are being planned for today.”
