IntroductionFor the final project for ENBE, Each student will have to pretend that they are the mayor of the “X” City. The people in “X” city require a new city because of reasons that it no longer liveable or because it’s just too crowded. As a mayor you will need to propose a
new layout for the new “X” City very quickly. As a group, we are given 5 options to choose to build the city on. The 5 options are an underground city (or in a cave), an underwater or floating on water City (at sea or saltwater wetlands), an underwater or floating on water City (fresh water wetlands), a city that blends in the forest (Swamp Area etc), a city in the Air (or sky scraper city or in the mountains). When planning the city, students are required to consider and include the followings;
i. The geometric shape, form, pattern, hierarchy, system and structure of the city.
ii. The aim of the city, the green approach, new waste management, new technology, business plan, new initiatives etc.
iii. The main focus of the city; such as the square, garden, monuments, town hall, pavilion, civic building, axis and vistas.

(government buildings, business area, commercial areas, recreational areas, education areas, religious and cultures areas, hospitals, services area, industrial area, residential, community area, port and shipping area, forest and green areas, agriculture area, hospitality and tourism etc)
v. The people, population, social issues, activities, food distribution, crime, security, education, culture and religion.
vi. Transportation and networking. vii. Infrastructure, utility, services and amenities. (Energy, water, waste etc.)

The progress layout design
The idea in my mind is to make a simple layout design for the city, the shape will be either a big circle or a pentagon.
Pamphlet design
For the pamphlet design, I chose to do the classic one which is the accordion style. As for how the pamphlet look like, instead of making it look messy with a lot of graphics and fancy fonts, I want to make it simple yet easy to understand.
