O ovoj e-knjizi

After five decades of rampant growth, Oman is challenged to rethink its urbanization patterns. The continuous expansion of the footprint in major cities as the method the response to the increasing housing demands has reached its limits.

DOCS explores a set of methods to generate alternative typologies that lead to more compact growth while addressing cultural issues. Dr -Ing.
