Description

Val d'Europe: A City Vision presents the story behind one of Europe's most innovative urban projects. In 1987, Disneyland Paris was joined by a new city, designed to be beautiful, practical and sustainable. This book tells the story of how architects Bernard Durand-Rival and others created a unique urban experience that balances social diversity with ecological imperatives. The result is a city where streets are familiar, squares are convivial, and architecture blends private and public spaces. The book offers a behind-the-scenes look at the challenges and solutions that went into creating this remarkable place. With maps, photographs and original watercolours, it provides a unique insight into the design process. By reviving European urban genius, Val d'Europe's creators aimed to create an authentic city that meets today's demands. This book presents their vision and the process that brought it to life, making it a valuable resource for architects, designers and anyone interested in sustainable urban planning.
