Förlagets beskrivning
Incomparably, the urban centre of The Super Park Eco City is served by numerous squares, which enjoy somewhat neo-baroque vistas towards various segments and features of the city. The largest square in the centre where the six sinuous (tail end of the trisectrix of Catalan - After 19th C Belgian mathematician Eugene Catalan - to be precise) avenues and streets meet is approximately the size of Trafalgar Square, but slightly smaller as a gesture of respect towards Nash's London. From the centre of this vast pedestrian piazza one can see the towering Sub-Centres at the other end of each trisectric residential segment. To compare with existing urban space I can suggest a tripling of Piazza del Popolo in form and nearly in size. High-rise, compact yet generous and functional in plan, similar to an unrivalled exotic gem on precious landscape, vertical yet interesting and spacious in section; amazingly, I have kept over 65% green space on the tessellated overall plan. This will make these cities the greenest high-density ever conceived. The two/three parallel linear concept, Trimorphic Structural-Spatial Architecture (TSSA) will be the generic form here too, but as seen on the city plan there will be an intricate multilevel network of formal/spatial connections. We shall study how I have attempted to infuse ideals of E Howard with that of Le Corbusier. Moreover, the inspiration from Renaissance geometric fortress cities, baroque planning, 19th-century Utopian urban schemes, ideals of Geddes, L'Enfant, Abercrombie and CIAM will be examined in detail. I believe the Super City I propose has its roots in history, and uniquely combines the merits of the 'Cultural City' and the 'Progressist City', conducive to implementing Kant's conception of Summum Bonum (highest/supreme/good), and the individual's Kantian/English (Burke's "beauty" and "sublimity") "empirical interest in the beautiful." Concurrently, it materialises the ideals of the beautified green, clean, quiet humanised mega city, with a multilayer, functional, complex, aesthetic and efficient infrastructure integrating simultaneous movement systems. Additionally, I have avoided falling into the pitfall of many master city planners, including the great Corbusier, by eliminating suburbia altogether. (Francois Choay labels it Pseudurbia) Hence, enjoining my Towering Periphery Strips to the Green Belt immediately, enjoying all its environmental/agricultural benefits and panoramic splendour...Moreover, the legacies of Abercrombie and Robson are respected, and their ideal of reconciling rational planning with democratic politics can finally be realised
