Abstract
The urban future looks unclear. Even if some suggest that the future of urbanism would be drawn according to the needs and impositions of artificial intelligence or ecological requirements it is still not enough light shed on integral human development. Therefore the paper examines the relation between sacrum elements of the metaphysical dimension of living and potential technological innovations that would occur shortly. Keeping in mind that technology alone is not sufficient to transfigure human life completely into novel forms of being, metaphysical arguments are in use to bring fourth new urban patterns into a discussion. The relation or rather superposition of sacrum and future technologies is introduced as a basis of inverted city phenomenon whereby implicit manner would be explained and described in an explicit language. The inverted city, based on the sacrum and future tech dimensions, would introduce a new lifestyle model that relies on the juxtaposition of wanderer life qualities along with best practices of sedentary life. The inverted city is a completely new phenomenon though it is inherited from the deep past in terms of the total heritage approach.
