  1. Landscapes have become homogenized (uniform in activities, structure, styles of construction and architecture)

  2. Where in the world am I?

  3. To consider • More rural landscapes are homogenized due to agro industrialisation • Major tourist destinations are increasingly alike • Transport systems are the same: Airports, underground mass transport, similar road signs, ring roads, multi lane arterial roads. • Industrial landscapes are increasingly alike – think science parks, business parks, industrial areas.

  4. Homogenisation or glocalisation? • Find images of London, Tokyo, New York and Mumbai • Look for evidence of homogenisation and glocalisation by annotating the similarities and differences

  5. Global cities? Homogenized?

  6. Case study of Gurgaon, India • To what extent is it a homogenised landscape?
