"7 Points for EcoMetropolitanism" published in PRAXIS 10: URBAN MATTTERS

excerpt:

What is EcoMet?
If Vancouverism is the model of density and diversity within a livable framework, EcoMet(ropolitanism) is an accelerated version. EcoMet increases density and livability while amplifying and exploiting the relationship to the natural environment by synthesizing the production of metropolitan culture with that of ecologically designed architectural environments. From these tenets, the EcoMetropolis emerges: the hyper dense, super diverse, and radically optimized city.
