CO-EVOLUTION : CHALLENGES © UiD 2006

CO-EVOLUTION: CHALLENGES is a research project conducted by UiD on urban development in China for the exhibition CO-EVOLUTION: Danish/Chinese Collaboration on Sustainable Urban Development in China. The exhibition is the official Danish contribution to the Venice Biennale, 10th International Architecture Exhibition and the 2nd Architectural Biennial Beijing

With 16 out of the 20 most polluted cities in the World and projections of unparalleled resource consumption, the need for sustainable urban development is probably more acute in China than anywhere else. And with almost 50% of all new floor areas in the world being constructed in China it is also the obvious testing ground for such development. UiD, 2006
