Technologies may appear faster than spatial planning can afford it. Alt hough applying new technologies solve particular problems, it may also create new ones. Many negative consequences of implementing new technologies are visible a fter years or decades – they accumulate until the need of solving them. According to The Hannover Principles (McDonough & Braungart 2013) one should, by example not think about reducing but about eliminating negative impacts. Did we learn life- cycle management from this since 1992, and implement it correctly? Can we predict and eliminate negative side effects? Could we add a positi ve value to the neighbourhood? In this paper author will scrutinize selected applications of modern an d contemporary techniques and technologies influencing shaping of spatial structures and will emphasize their side effects in terms of urban, regional and global “health”. Author will propose contemporary local intervention and investment possibi lities on creating self-sustaining neighbourhoods and buildings. Its background will b e a new vision of architecture and spatial structures that include ideas i nspired from biosphere, e.g.: retrieving and capturing or circulation of CO 2 and nutrients. Author will present a concept based on aquaponics gardening that could be adapted to existing buildings and new designs. The concept design will not only reduce and eliminate emissions but also could have a positive impact on citizens ’ health and the whole city and its surrounding.
