The jury commended this project for its seminal approach to town planning that introduces focus and context-sensitivity into large scale urban planning. It is a showcase of a conceptual framework for city expansion, applicable where classic urban planning failed. Demands of the city, an ecological concept, and issues of existing communities are respected and addressed. They are treated as integral parts of the city expansion. This urban development provides space for contemporary culture and sets correlation with traditional culture. A “high density” ecosystem negotiates between the urban and the rural. In the area of conflict between technical, social and political necessities, this project has the potential to trigger a revision of past urban planning and its redeployment in terms of today’s and future challenges.
