The design will also features such as rain water catchment, grey water filtration and an awesome natural water swimming pool. Tirana is actually a city, but the site for Park Life is on its outskirts and is quite suburban.

It’s set within a rolling green park with expansive views of the city and nearby lake. JA Joubert decided to defy what the classic definition of a suburb is with their design.

The result was a new type of community for all different age groups with sports and health facilities, an integral solution for building and parking, restaurants and shops and outdoor living all encapsulated within a giant park.

Park Life will also feature systems for buffering water, collecting rain water and filtering it through a reed bed, and use of grey water for irrigation and cooling.
