| Sommario/riassunto: | ReNew Town puts forth an innovative vision of performative design and planning for low-carbon sustainable development, and illustrates practicable strategies for balancing environmental systems with urban infrastructure and new housing prototypes.To date, much of the discourse on the design of sustainable communities and 'eco-cities' has been premised on using previously undeveloped land.
