ENBE PROJECT 2 REPORT
Introduction
First and foremost, this is our final project for subject ENBE, which all students have to come out with their own ideas to make and design their own future city. The idea of this project is to understand the component and elements of a city and what makes a better future city. Basically, there are different types of cities to be chosen by the students such as floating city, underwater city, city on the air and etc. My group (H20) have chosen floating city. From this project, each groups have about 5-6 students, where we all have to work as a team to make a model. The final project is divided into two parts, Part A and Part B. For Part A, each of everyone has to create their own short 3 minutes video presentation of the future city, as well as preparing an A4 report. These two tasks are considered as individual work (20%). For Part B, students have to prepare A2 presentation board and a model of the city, which will be considered as group work (20%). The objectives of this project is to expose the elements of the natural and built environment in their basic unit, form and function, show partnership of the elements of the natural and built environment and to question and articulate the impact between natural and built environment.

The City
A city is a relatively large and permanent human settlement that have a particular administrative, legal, or historical status based on local law. It has a complex systems for sanitation, utilities, land usage, housing, and transportation. It also has associated suburbs and exurbs. It is usually associated with metropolitan areas and urban areas, creating numerous business commuters travelling to urban centres for employment. In my opinion, the design and structure that can be very influential in the life is what makes the city. They also have to create novel contexts for a community to develop in a more sustainable way. Besides, what makes a good city is a city that is more livable and very sustainable in their use of energy.

Investigation & Data Collection
Ancient Cities: Mount Parnassus , Greece
I have chosen Mount Parnassus as my ancient city. Basically, this city contains a mountain of limestone in central Greece that towers above Delphi, north of the Gulf of Corinth, and offers scenic views of the surrounding olive groves and countryside. According to Greek mythology, this mountain was sacred to Apollo and the Corycian nymphs, and the home of the Muses. The mountain was also favored by the Dorians. There is a theory that Parna- derived from the same root as the word in Luwian meaning House. Ski Centre is composed of two sections, Kellaria and Fterolakka, which together make up the largest ski centre in Greece. A smaller ski centre (only two drag lifts) called Gerontovrahos is across a ridge from Kellaria. Parnassus is mined for its abundant supply of bauxite which is converted to aluminium oxide and then to aluminium. Both ski resorts continued expanding and in 1993 the first high-speed quad in Greece was installed, named Hercules.Today the ski centre operates with 14 lifts,a 4-seater cable car, a 4-seater high-speed chair lift, four 3-seaters, one

2-seater chair lift and 6 drag lifts, with a maximum capacity of about 5000 people per hour. The ski centre boasts 25 marked ski runs and about 12 ski routes of 30 km (19 mi) total length while the longest run is 4 km (2 mi). As a conclusion, this city has its own history and made of some unique materials and design.

Present Cities: New York City
New York is the most populous city in the United States. It is the center of one of the most populous urban agglomerations in the world. Besides, New York is also an important center for international diplomacy and has been described as the cultural and financial capital of the world. The census-estimated 2013 of population is around 8,405,837.
History of New York CityThe first native New Yorkers were the Lenape, an Algonquin people who hunted, fished and farmed in the area between the Delaware and Hudson rivers. Europeans began to explore the region at the beginning of the 16th century–among the first was Giovanni da Verrazzano, an Italian who sailed up and down the Atlantic coast in search of a route to Asia–but none settled there until 1624. That year, the Dutch West India Company sent some 30 families to live and work in a tiny settlement on “Nutten Island” (today’s Governors Island) that they

ENBE | Final Project | Part A – Report | The Future City Representation
called New Amsterdam. In 1626, the settlement’s governor general, Peter Minuit, purchased the much larger Manhattan Island from the natives for 60 guilders in trade goods such as tools, farming equipment, cloth and wampum (shell beads). Fewer than 300 people lived in New Amsterdam when the settlement moved to Manhattan. But it grew quickly, and in 1760 the city (now called New York City; population 18,000) surpassed Boston to become the second-largest city in the American colonies. Fifty years later, with a population 202,589, it became the largest city in the Western hemisphere.

Future Cities: Slipstream Heathrow
I have chosen this place as my future city. Basically, Slipstream appears like a jet's vapour trail and is suspended 18m (60ft) above the ground of the £2.5bn terminal. The sculpture is 78m (260ft) long, weighs 77 tonnes and consists of 23 bespoke pieces. An estimated 20 million passengers a year will pass underneath the artwork as they head to catch their flights. It was designed by British artist Richard Wilson (below left) and incorporated into the terminal's design by lead architect Luis Vidal. It was also built at his workshop in Hull, it is made up of nearly 500,000 components which were precision-cut into different layers before being covered in aluminium. Also known

as the Queen's Terminal, Terminal 2 is set to open for business on 4 June, 59 years after the original terminal was opened. More than 20 airlines and 25,000 staff will operate out of T2.
Havoc City
This is a city designed by me, which I name it Havoc City. It is a floating city with some special characteristics with its own ways. Basically, HAVOC itself has its own meaning which is:

Conclusion
From this project, I have learnt that it is important to live in a city which is sustainable, more livable and etc in order to have a better life. Besides, building a city is not just about designing to make it nice, but it’s just more than that. For example, you have to think about how you can make it a better place to live such as how it gets its energy resource, transportation, facilities, cultural area, walkability, human activities, as well as cultural area and etc. Besides, I have learnt that it is very important to understand the brief before we start doing the project. We have to prepare and manage time wisely for this project. In my opinion, doing a project without any plan and preparation is like playing football without any game plan. So far, I really enjoy doing this project. Thank god, I finally managed to finalize both my short video presentation and a report for my future city. I am really looking forward to build a model for my city, as well as presentation board soon.
