Kudavi is a Satellite city being built by LBC (Let's Build Cities)

1. LBC: Kudavi
A Satellite City
1/22/2016

2. We think about cities as products.

3. We believe it is possible to build new
satellite cities (50-100k people).

4. Why
Co-working is huge for a reason > cities can be lonely
People want to live next to their friends
Urban walkable cities are becoming too expensive for
people that work in creative industries
Millienials and retired baby boomers don’t want to live
in the suburbs
= People are open to new options

5. Our Response = Suburbs 3.0
No ownership
No cars
Co-living
Co-working
Close enough to major metros, but not a daily
commutable distance

14. Appendix:
Alice laughed. “There's no use trying,” she said.
“One can't believe impossible things.”
“I daresay you haven't had much practice,” said
the Queen. “When I was your age, I always did it
for half-an-hour a day. Why, sometimes I've
believed as many as six impossible things before
breakfast!"
