The book documents a unique accumulation of superlatives.
Light is shed on two business strategies – CargoLifter and
Tropical Islands – attempting to realise mankind’s primordial
dreams. The scene is the world’s largest self-supporting hall
in a small village close to Berlin. 
The authors Gerlinde Schuller and Claudia Weber compare
these two visions on their paths to implementation, while
simultaneously putting them in the context of current
international events. The documentation is supplemented
with text contributions by: Sam Jacob (FAT Ltd., London),
Dingeman Kuilman (Premsela Design Foundation, Amsterdam),
Jochen Becker (critic and curator, Berlin) and Prof. Dr. Bernd
Kriegesmann (Institute for Applied Innovation Research,
Bochum).
