How do you rebuild one of the world’s most overpopulated capitals? And what happens to the old one?
The city of Jakarta will no longer be the capital of Indonesia with plans to relocate the government to Kalimantan in Borneo. The new capital, named Nusantara, is a bid to redistribute wealth and create a new ‘center of economic gravity’. So, How do you conceive an entirely new capital city? What are the main factors that architects and master planners need to consider? And what are the challenges ahead?
In Episode 2, Monita Rajpal is joined by Chris Panfil, Vice President and Director of Planning and Urban Design at WATG. Chris’s work has included master planning and urban design for new communities, resort towns and villages, as well as planning strategies for cultural tourism destinations. His work has taken him throughout Europe, the Middle East, Asia, Africa, and South America, including Brazil. Chris joins us from our Singapore studio.
