The re-discovery of ordinary public places in an alternative urban architectural model for Chinese cities – The case of Chengdu Jasper Nijveldt

P5 3-2-2012




Top 50 cities 2025 |Urban economic clout moves east



And 400 million farmers then moved in?


And what if they also want an Ipad?


And a new car?


How will the cities look like?


How will cities grow?


How will you move around?


Can you breathe normally?



Would it be dense?


Chinese?


Or will everybody live in sprawled suburbs?
