We uncover phantom cities defined by riverine logic: buried systems (medieval rivers and culverted canals), drowned landscapes (post-glacial river basins now submerged), and canalized rivers forgotten in the city’s routine. From Perugia’s 13th-century aqueduct to London’s Lost Rivers and modern restoration efforts, archaeology, geophysics, and proactive urban design are reviving these invisible streams to inform resilient futures.

A deep dive into how an orb web’s radial spokes and logarithmic spiral create a resilient, damage-tolerant architecture. We explore the math of load distribution, the role of pre-stressing, and how this natural blueprint inspires biomimicry—from advanced fabrics and protective gear to nanoscale tubes and space-ready structures.
