Monocle’s Top 25 Liveable Cities
Monday, July 7th 2008 | Ismael Ghalimi
I just arrived in Singapore for a two-day trip in the eponymous city, to be followed by Bangkok, Thailand. The 17 hours United Airlines flight with connection in Narita gave me the opportunity to pour through Monocle’s issue 15, volume 02, and its fantastic list of Top 25 Liveable Cities. Interestingly enough, the Phase I & II development plan for Monolab|Workspace (16 locations) includes 7 of Monocle’s favorite destinations. Phase III & IV will extend the list to 64 locations, and every single one of them is on Monocle’s list (extended with 5 challengers).
Since Monocle’s list isn’t public yet, I won’t disclose it. If you can’t wait for it to be displayed on this page, just go to your favorite news stand, or order a copy online. And if you’re not already familiar with this publication, Monocle was created by Tyler Brûlé, founder of Wallpaper*. The magazine is perfect in every possible way, and the best embodiment of 21st century cosmopolitan culture.
Now that we have our roadmap set for the next couple of years, we need help identifying the right neighborhoods in the cities we’ve selected, and scouting real estate properties that could be bought for the purpose of creating the most inspiring workspaces ever. Consider yourself invited!

Hi Ismael,
This link gives you all cities, even though no details. Germany, with Munich (#2), Berlin and Hamburg looks pretty good. Although my favorite Freiburg (close to France and Switzerland), is probably too small to make it.
Curious where you are going to go
