Building Cities:Perspectivesfrom China
My talk is more experiential than academic; from the point of view of a practicing architect. I designed close to 6 million m2 of buildings, and about 600,000 m2 were built . (1 in 10).
“Those with manual skill without scholarship have never been able to reach a position of authority to correspond to their pains, while those who relied only upon theories and scholarship were obviously hunting the shadow, not the substance. But those who have a through knowledge of both, like men armed at all points, have sooner attained their object and carried authority with them.”Vitruvius

A Concluding Thought
Musical Bricks, Montreal 1966
Mattawa, Oil Pastel Painting, 1970
The world was one, and we had to be anxiously concerned about its needs. We had to build a new kind of world, one that was just, one that transcended nationalism, sexism, racism and any kind of religious intolerance. Cultural diversity was important. Our survival included searching for synergetic relationships and preserving the
cultural gene pool.

A Concluding Thought
Why are we building cities? What is China’s role?
Cities are the infrastructure and nodes of an emerging global community.
"The Age of Nations is past. The task before us now,
if we would not perish, is to build the Earth.”

Map of Human Maturation
The construction of the inner and outer city is a necessary part of the construction of the Great Unity. Cities are nodes of the global village.Urbanization Wave: West/China/India/Africa. China has much to offer,
not just city-building experience.

Humanity’s Collective Maturation Process(process comparable to the maturation of the individual)
放纵型专制型
Summary (2 of 2)
Humanity’s collective maturation can be compared to the maturation of the individual.
China was the leader of our collective
development until about AD1300.
Development continued with Islam, from about 600
to 1500, building a civilization, a knowledge
bridge, that stretched from Fuzhou to Seville. The fruits of the Chinese,
Hindu, Jewish, and Greek worlds – and everything in between – was absorbed
and shared across all that same territory.
Islam’s turn to lead exactly corresponded with the
Dark Ages of the West. Islamic civilization caused
the Renaissance in Europe. The west has led
us into the 20th century.Its materialistic consumer
paradigm currently dominates the globalization
process.
The world is challenged to build a civilization that is
both materially and spiritually advanced, and
that draws on our collective heritage.
Learning from the Discourse on Social and Economic Development
“Outer” City “Inner” City
Some Criteria for the Sustainable “Outer City”• Mixed-use • Rich street life based on pedestrians and public transportation • New green city infrastructure for water and waste • A net zero energy and water community• Agriculture imbedded into the community
Some Criteria for the Sustainable “Inner City”• On-going Capacity Building• Individuals who are constructive, responsible protagonists • Communities that are originators and encouragers, that work together with a common purpose • Institutions that provide for meaningful participation
Architects grow in Discourse “A” but the inclusiveness habit spreads the search, and Discourse “A” begins to merge with Discourse “B”.
