Architects Adrian Smith and Gordin Gill are working on creating a city simply know as the Great City - a self-sustaining, environmentally sensitive, satellite city, which will be situated outside Chengdu, China. The city will be relatively small (1.3km2 circle surrounded by 1.9km2 of farmland and parks) and therefore inhabitants will be strongly encouraged to walk around the city rather than drive. This lack of cars means the city is expected to use 48 percent less energy and 58 percent less water than a conventional development of similar population.
