🌍 Cities as Stories: Aerial Views of Urban Planning & Architecture

This stunning collage offers a glimpse into how history, geography, and culture shape the urban landscapes of nine iconic cities:

🔸 New Delhi, India: Designed by Edwin Lutyens, the city’s radial layout, with Rashtrapati Bhavan and India Gate at its core, reflects grandeur and colonial ambition.

🔸 New York, USA: Manhattan’s strict 1811 grid system prioritizes simplicity and growth, with Central Park as a green refuge in a vertical metropolis.

🔸 Brussels, Belgium: The medieval charm of winding streets radiating from the Grand Place highlights centuries of organic growth.

🔸 Madrid, Spain: A mix of Bourbon-era boulevards and historic neighborhoods, Madrid leads in sustainability with projects like Madrid Central.

🔸 La Plata, Argentina: Known as the “City of Diagonals,” its grid-and-diagonal layout ensures connectivity, blending modernity with accessibility.

🔸 Brasília, Brazil: A modernist vision by Lucio Costa and Oscar Niemeyer, Brasília symbolizes progress, though its car dependency challenges inclusivity.

🔸 Bern, Switzerland: A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Bern’s medieval circular design adapts beautifully to modern green transit solutions.

🔸 Palmanova, Italy: A Renaissance star-fortress city, Palmanova is a testament to geometric precision and military strategy.

🔸 Athens, Greece: Rooted in history, Athens balances its ancient heritage with modern urban renewal, integrating the Acropolis into daily life.

These cities highlight how urban planning isn’t just about infrastructure—it’s a mirror of societal values and aspirations. Whether it’s the order of grids, the charm of medieval streets, or the boldness of modernist visions, they show us the power of design to shape our lives.

What’s your favorite city layout, and why? Let’s discuss! 🌟
