- I believe that the Superillas are a great example of what modern-day sustainable design should be all about. Using the infrastructure that we are already provided with and making something useful out of it.
- The Superillas can also be looked at as a new type of vernacular architecture. We could take Superillas and design them accordingly depending on the site and surrounding context. For example, a Superillas in Barcelona, could very much be way more different than one in Portland, Oregon.
- When looking at a city like Eugene or Portland, which are both located in the Pacific Northwest, how could the use of Superillas differ here than in Barcelona (where they have a Mediterranean climate)?
