FranzNahrada/Texte/InitiationsGeschichte
"Geboren" wurde die Projektidee GIVE FranzNahrada/FromSuburbiaToGlobalVillages One of the most interesting people that I have met in my life is Joseph Smyth, architect, and visionary in the United States of America. I met him in the early nineties, when a friend had referred me to him as one of the persons that might be relevant for the evolving Global Villages idea....
You all know that the city of Los Angeles is a city which has been most dramatically changed by the automobile. What used to be a lavish, green agricultural valley has been sealed with concrete. Therefore, the satellite view of Los Angeles today shows grey as the predominant colour.
So the visionary painted another satellite map, showing what would be the outcome if we could substantially reduce the importance of the car in todays Cities. He showed a network of pedestrian oriented, clustered communities, born in a chaotic process of "Edge City Densification", which in a way remind us much more of a European land use pattern with dedicated subcenters, which provide in short reach access to public transportation, shopping, services and all kind of leisure activities. zu Teil2 (1993 - 2004) | ||||
