High Connectivity at all levels: site, precinct and district-Creating communities based on transportation modes and accessibility and walkability.
Each neighbourhood is unique and having a core transit hub and is within a 10 minute walking radius.
Creating a landscape axis , green axis, commercial corridor, waterfront corridor to link urban cores.
Humanise scale of buildings and blocks.
Transforming landfills , rainstorm collection system Retaining wetlands etc as part of landscape strategy
Develop unique character for each zone for developing a sense of place and identity.
Promoting Sustainable Urbanism
Don’ts
Too many elevated highways for high speed uninterrupted transport makes it detached from the surrounding landscape. Creating blocks too big make walking uncomfortable.
Not including mixed use decreases walkability and diversity
Not creating pocket parks that also deals with storm water and flooding. Roads that cut through parks disrupts the space.
Disconnected large open green spaces can make it become desolate and prone to criminal activities.
Privatizing waterfront areas makes it less accessible to the public underutilizing precious public space

CYBER CITY GURUGRAM
PRIMARY CASE STUDY
NAME : Cyber City, Gurugram
SITE AREA: 128 Acres
DEVELOPERS: DLF
TYPOLOGIES : Commercial, Office, Recreational
LEARNINGS
Dos
Easy access to the Hub through Rapid Metro Gurgaon and National Highway.
Vehicular movement is restricted to periphery, leaving interior open for free pedestrian movement.
The streets act as a spine leading to the Node of the Hub, which is designed to have an OAT that can accomodate a large number of people.
Smooth transition from built to unbuilt, through semi-open interface spaces.
There is a proper vertical spatial organization wherein the bottom layers are primarily dedicated to public functions.
Open terrace spaces seems like a welcoming gestures to the oncoming traffic. They are designed with landscape features to enhance socializing.
Don’ts
The DLF phase 2 underpass, has ended up adding to traffic chaos at Cyber City as confused commuters often miss the turn leading to underpass and simply drive over the divider to cross over
The Design doesn’t consider the need for future expanision.
The Design doesn’t address for the rise of parking needs in the Hub.
The Design only address the creamy layer of the society and doesn’t have any provision for the middle/poor class.
Poor placement of signages makes it difficult for the commuters to spot them.
Design is not sensetive to the Indian context in terms of its desgn language and response to climate
