Victory City

The Victory City I think is a very good initiative to take care about the planning of cities of the future. Maybe one of the biggest problems of cities today is they’ve been built in a very “organic” way, I mean, they have grown in a disorganized way, no thinking about how the land is damaged or how to take the most benefit from it without an indiscriminated explotation. In days the Earth is in danger and our own survival too, I think this approach of solution is a very good idea, ‘cause it’s thought in as a “systemic” solution.
From the design point of view, I think it seems to be well thought, ‘cause they optimize the resources as food and space, and that’s a very important matter for design, the optimization. I think is incredible that in a very small space, you can put a lot of people that lives in a very large extend of land (as Ohio). In a ecodesign class I had two years ago, my teacher explained the impact of the current industry and the difference between an industrial park concibed for the optimization. What is consider disposal of waste for an industry, could be supply for another. The contamination of the park is much less than each industry by separate. This is an “design from the beggining” approach.
This city it’s concibed the same way, so I hope in the future we can all live in a Victory City, for the good of Earth.
