• Resumen

  • Amid China's snowballing commercial success, feeding and housing the burgeoning population may be a challenge, but it is also a great urbanistic opportunity. With the right approach, it is possible to couple new urban development with land-use practices that are sustainable on both human and environmental levels. Zhangdu Lake Farm ecological village, by GRO Architects in association with the New Jersey Institute of Technology, is a case in point. Guest-Editor and GRO Principal Richard Garber describes how a combination of community engagement, digital technologies and green thinking are guiding its evolution.
