That would mean:

  1. Rotating habitats, up to entire cities rotating, to generating additional gravity

  2. Pressurized buildings, so you´ll be living inside your entire life.

  3. Living underground.

But if you like living in an underground city, you can build one on Earth too. It would be a good proof of concept before doing the same on another planet.
