Check out our latest feature on Urban Omnibus: Innovation and the American Metropolis. In it we talk to Tom Wright and Rob Lane of RPA about the meanings and uses of "innovation" in the New York metro region (past and present) and technology's impact on regional planning. The conversation took place in anticipation of their upcoming Regional Assembly on the topic.
Our studio is developing an urban design vision for Nano City, a development some twenty miles south of the city of Chandigarh. Students are working on ideas for infrastructure, transportation, road networks, and communication networks. The main intent is to create a livable, dense, sustainable, eco-friendly environment that can serve as a model for other developments in the region.
