Urbanization

Surface architecture is generally utilitarian, with little thought for aesthetics. There are plenty of underground areas, as Gurvin evolved from tunnelling den-living animals. Surface buildings are often grouped very closely together, connected via corridors on several levels. Gurvin do not generally separate residential areas from business areas. Their cities also have an unfortunate reputation for significant pollution problems.
