Melbourne’s 2019 Design Week has offered new sustainable proposals to help the city reclaim its ‘most livable city crown.’

 

In 2018, Melbourne was toppled from the coveted position of "world's most livable city" after a seven-year reign.

At a time when the city's demography is shifting so quickly and environmental concerns are mounting, improving infrastructure is only part of the solution.

Some of the ideas heard this past 2019 Design Week include a swimmable Yarra River, smog sucking bicycles and making Melbourne a National Park.
