MONT-SAINT MICHEL, FRANCE
LOCATION :
Mouth of the Couesnon River near Avranches
SIZE :
100 hectares
POPULATION:
<1000
The Mont-Saint Michel is named after the arch-angel, Saint Michel. It is
known as the Merveille de l'Occident or Wonder of the Western World. The
construction of the abbey took more than 500 years, from 1017 to 1521. It is
inspired actually from the appearance of angel Michael in a series of
dreams dreamt by Aubert, Bishop of Avranches, telling him to build a
church on what was then a barren rock called Mont Tombe.
5
8. EXAMPLE:
MONT-SAINT MICHEL, FRANCE
The structural composition of the city exemplifies the feudal
society that constructed it. For example, the top rock is capped
by a large cathedral which represents the God, the abbey and
monastery. The position of the homes and shops below hugs the
sides of the city’s formation. At the bottom, outside the walls is
where the fishermen and farmers live. Most of the buildings here
are made out of granite and limestone.
Many underground crypts and chapels had to be build to compensate
the weight of the Abbey that formed the basis for the supportive upward
structure which can be seen today. In conclusion, the tiny Mount-Saint
Michel is the most unspoiled Medieval city in Europe as it has remained
virtually the same over the centuries.

10. EXAMPLE :
KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA
LOCATION :
Central west coast of Peninsula Malaysia
SIZE :
243km²
POPULATION :
Approximately 7.1million (1.6 million in the core city of Kuala
Lumpur and 5.5 million in the suburbs).
YEAR 1875
It all started in the year 1875 when a member of
Selangor’s royal family, Raja Abdullah, decided
to open up an area In the Klang Valley for tin
prospectors. Miners from China soon arrived and
despite pestilence that killed a large number of
them, the Chinese miners thrived, attracting
merchants and businesses. The commercial area
of tin trading was located in the confluence of the
Klang and Gombak rivers and it was here that
Kuala Lumpur was established.
8
11. EXAMPLE :
KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA
The Kuala Lumpur region of Malaysia is generally defined by the state of Sealngor
and two geographical enclaves, the federal territories of Kuala Lumpur (white) and
Putrajaya . Kuala Lumpur houses the national Parliament and Putrajaya the executive
and judicial branches.
Kuala Lumpur urban area is located in a densely
forested tropical region, where the residential areas
take place.
The largest building are mostly located at the
central business district which are much less
densely packed compared to most large cities
around the world.
9
12. EXAMPLE :
KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA
Besides that, Kuala Lumpur had opened three metro lines, a monorail and three
commuter rail lines in 2010. Kuala Lumpur region also serves and extensive network
of expressways.
One of the common expressways is the SMART tunnel
which serves both vehicles and storm water. This tunnel is
very useful to overcome the traffic madness especially when
there is serious flooding.

DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES
LOCATION :
Persian Gulf, northeast of United Arab Emirates
SIZE :
3885km² (urban area)
35km² (city)
POPULATION :
2106 million (2013)
The formation of Dubai started at the mouth of the creek. The creek
was a natural harbor and Dubai soon became a centre for fishing ,
pearling and sea trade. In the 1950’s the creek began to slit and
turned into a waterway dredged. As a result, Dubai had became a
major trading and re-export hub. Oil which was discovered in 1966
had increased the infrastructure development of Dubai until today.
14
17. EXAMPLE:
DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES
The reason why Dubai known as one of the futuristic city in
the world is because of its buildings and structures. Dubai
offers some of the world’s tallest and biggest structures.
Biggest mall, tallest hotel, second largest man-made marina
and the world’s largest aquarium are all located in Dubai.
Dubai Creek which is located
in the city of Dubai provides
porting facilities for traders
from the area and the
subcontinent. It is also used
as boating activities.
Dubai Palm Island is
one of Dubai’s man-
made islands. It
consists of hotels and
resorts, beachfront
houses and shopping
malls.
However, the traffic in Dubai is so bad
and it become congested because of
the developments. So in order to
overcome this problem , double-
decker roads for transportation were
being introduced here.
15
18. TOWN PLANNING PRINCIPLE:
SATELLITE TOWN
Town, self-contained and limited in size, built
in a particular place of a large town or city.
A planned city in a natural growth
path of a nearby larger city designed to
stop urban sprawl ( expansion of human
population) to the suburbs and to
supplement and aid the larger city’s
expansion.
16
19. CHARACTERISTICS OF A SATELLITE TOWN
Partially independent from
that metropolis economically
and socially.
Physically separated from the
metropolis by rural territory or by
a major geographic barrier.
Satellite cities should have
their own independent
urbanized area.
Have their own bedroom
communities (residential area; a
suburb of a major urban center)
May have a traditional downtown surrounded
by traditional “inner city” neighborhoods.

20. EXAMPLE:
BRASILIA , BRAZIL
LOCATION : BRAZIL
FOUNDED : 22nd APRIL 1960
POPULATION : 2.5 MILLION (2011)
URBAN PLANNER : LUCIO COSTA
ARCHITECT : OSCAR NIEMEYER
LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT : BURLE MARX

22nd April 1960. It is a planned city distinguished by its white,
modern architecture designed by Oscar Niemeyer. Brasilia existed
because of the migrants from all across the country saw Brasilia an
opportunity for a better life. Because of this, small villages were
built. As the number of migrants increases, these villages had grew
and eventually turned into satellite city.

21. EXAMPLE:
BRASILIA , BRAZIL
BRASILIA’S TOWN PLANNING STAGES
Urban planner, Lucio Costa had decided a concept pointed to
the shape of a cross, to symbolize possession. Brasilia has
two axis crossing at right angle; the monumental axis
intersecting in the centre of the city with a residential axis.
Residential axis
Monumental axis
To adapt this design to the local topography, the natural
drainage of the area was included.
One of the axis was curved in order to fit into the equilateral
triangle.

BRASILIA , BRAZIL
BRASILIA’S TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM
VEHICULAR
CIRCULATION
Secondary Roads :
Controls heavy vehicular
traffics.
Traffic :
Controlled by roads that
would either go on a
platform, underground, or
under the platform.
Clover Shaped Turn – Offs:
Circulate in different
districts without creating an
intersection.
PEDESTRIAN
PATH
Independent Paths :
Local pathway systems
were created for each
district.
Separated from vehicular
circulation.
LANDSCAPING
Buildings are surrounded
by bands of greenery
planted with trees.
Park cities are filled with
open areas ; squares,
gardens, orchards.
22
25. WHAT MAKES A BETTER
FUTURE CITY?
Increase public transportation especially
monorails to provide more space for other
developments as ell as reduce bad traffics
Transform unused roofs spaces into a garden for
leisure activities.
Instead of using big trucks, cities can use
smaller and greener vans to make deliveries.
This will lower the street’s congestion and
provide space for people to walk around.
Use power plants in cities. They can be connected to
smart grids which can reduce energy consumption.
23
26. WHAT MAKES A BETTER
FUTURE CITY?
Turn underground basement parking into a
reservoir to divert flood water in a control way and
can help to reduce flash floods during the rainy
days.
Introduce more Footfall Harvesting. Footfall
Harvesting is the capture of kinetic energy from
pedestrians’ footsteps and convert it into
electricity.
To encourage people to keep a city clean, the
government should introduce Smart Rubbish Bins.
It is a rubbish bin which is equipped with motor
that pushes down the rubbish when it reach near
the top.
Develop affordable mixed-use neighborhoods. It
means that a way of a development of a building
that blends the combination of residential,
commercial, cultural, institutional or industrial uses
that provides pedestrian connections.

between Kuala Lumpur and Petaling Jaya. Puchong also provides easy
access through the LDP highway.
37
40. BETTER FUTURE CITY
Build more double Decker roads to prevent
street congestions during heavy traffic flow.
To provide more space for development in a city, monorail should be build to replace public
transportations such as bus or taxi. This will also reduce street congestions.
Draw nature close to people by blending
nature in the city. Plant more greeneries in
the city to improve air quality.
38
41. BETTER FUTURE CITY
Have a systematically town planning
structure. For example like Brasilia in Brazil.
Make public space work harder. This is by
using any open spaces an transform it into a
functional space. Example, rooftop gardens.
Promote green buildings that uses power
plants to generate electricity. This can
reduce the amount of energy consumption.
Cities should improve visual access to
public spaces to help keep the neighborhood
safe.
