Master semester 1, urban assignment.
Over the course of 10 weeks the KAN-area in Holland (which features the cities Arnhem and Nijmegen) is to be completely analyzed. Every week a new, more accurate scale-level is required. During the second half of the semester an urban plan is to be developed that guides the growth/urbanization of the region over the upcoming 20 years. Both global plans for the entire region and specific designs are required.
