Description
Symbiotic Urbanism takes the research&designwork done by students of the Master of Urban Design and Regional Planning at the City University of Hong Kong as an occasion for reflection on how to drive the envisioned plans in a more sustainable, equitable way. The proposals retrofit the territorial palimpsest with punctual interventions, integrating new developments within existing settlements and providing job opportunities in the industrial and service sectors while ensuring inhabitants can also access nature. These proximities foster agricultural activities, drastically reduce food miles, facilitate social interaction and community engagement, and can achieve environmental stewardship, place attachment and a sense of belonging.
