• To move the control of organisation from one place
to another that is, distributing the power an
functions to other place.

MASTERPLAN
• The Decentralized City’s development pattern,
comprised of its component parts, the highways,
the buildings, and the natural landscape was meant
to invade the citys space.
• _x0000_ Closed areas were created in the city by the fish
spine. Intersections and corners disappeared been
replaced by an efficiency and secure Loop_x0000_

Schools in park area

Housing
Commercial
Agriculture

On one side there are the industrial buildings, across

the highway in a green belt, we find the administrative
and commercial buildings for visitors and behind them
different housing types. From the house, the park can
be directly accessed without crossing any roads. Other
programs like schools and educationalfacilities would
be located in the large green zones_x0000_
 In the project the nature is treated artificially
to serve man. In the settlement unit,
everything is surrounded by nature. It was
used to simulate lower density. It allowed
man a direct relation with nature. Low
housing was hidden by trees and shrubs
resulting in what Hilberseimer called a natural
camouflage, while higher apartment buildings
raised above the green in order to offer a
variety of options
and views.

A Regional Plan for Southern
California
We now live in an era in which airports are major focal points of the region.
If the train station was the epicenter of mobility in the historic city center, airports
are the focal points of the multi-centered regional metropolis.
A Regional Plan for Southern
California
• The physical boundaries in Los Angeles, the
mountains and the ocean, almost dictate an urban
growth edge.
New urbanism
• Our lives now are lived at a metropolitan scale. We
no longer live in isolated villages, neighborhoods,
or even singular cities. Your job opportunities, the
quality of the environment, the air you breathe, the
water that’s flowing through your neighborhood,
the traffic congestion that constrains your life – all
these things are regional in scale.
A Regional Plan for Southern
California
• It’s a massive area, with a population of thirteen
million. The growth demand there will be seven million
over the next twenty-five to thirty years, generated
partly by immigration, but most by internal
demographic trends
• Seven million is two cities the size of Chicago. So the
design problem is how do you add two Chicagos to LA.
It’s a fascinating question because it frames the typical
issue of piecemeal growth in a grand, comprehensive
manner
• The economy of the region is based on trade as much
as on the entertainment industry or other services. It’s
not just Hollywood
A Regional Plan for Southern
California
• This is a map of the flow of goods through the
region, 1 and when you trace these flows you begin
to reveal the physical structure of the regional
economy.
