Baumeister Journal: Oman - the Anti-Dubai?
Aurel writes about urbanisation trends and sustainability in Oman in Germany's oldest architecture magazine - Baumeister. The conservative development in Muscat is seen in contrast to fast paced Dubai. The specificities of urban sprawl, land allocation system, destruction of landscape are descrtibed as well as typical modern villas and sub-urban settlement patterns. The article concludes with a manifesto for sustainable urbanism adapted to Oman.
The text is written in German and featured in the May 2014 issue. A copy of Baumeister can be ordered here: http://www.callwey-shop.de/baumeister-b5-2014.html?SID=29b6a4524c7908c8b...
