Continues from the topic of previous post, thinking green for city planning, this project could be good precedent studies for current process of green city. 

This master plan competition for Hengyang, China was won by Danish architecture studio ADEPT, design involving a sequence of loop zone. Respecting historical precincts and integrating existing environment, the small loops of zones interact with its own character. And this relationship is lies between sustainable transportation system. The logical idea was inheriting tradition values and offer new way of living for community which enhance the experience of the urban environment and gives unique identity to the city. 

Most exciting part of this project is to see a city that is develop base on the green public transportation. Unlike how old cities that has been developed based on its cultural district these master plan can expect to be a car free city that would suggest new look of future city
