OBERMEYER Presentation: Urban Lightweight Development Model
Mr. Christopher Knabe, the General Manager of OBERMEYER China, delivered an insightful speech on very acute trends in urban development as well as transportation and the future of people oriented urban design, sparking lively inspiration throughout the venue. The presentation compared the city growth in Europe, America and Asia, and pointed out that the cities are showing tendencies to a lighter urbanization mode instead of the heavy development, although heavy urbanization will still have its demand.
