Behind 'Nagara Rimba Nusa', Winner of the New Capital Design Competition

Nagara Rimba Nusa was the winner of the new capital design competition. What is the story behind the development of the Nagara Rimba Nusa concept?

Nagara Rimba Nusa was initiated by Sibarani Sofian, an architect from Urban. Sofian tries to present the concept of a capital city that is environmentally friendly but still modern and based on a smart city.

Sibarani Sofian explained that there are landscape experts, environmental experts and others. This is complex, because we think about how we can achieve balanced development, how humans can coexist with nature, because in our history most of us have always been unsuccessful.

Sofian continued, his team deliberately created a complex of buildings close to each other so that residents could easily mobilize. The capital city designed by the Sofian team adapts the principles of bio mimicry. This means that development is carried out in accordance with the characteristics of the forest, without blocking the flow of water and wind.

This concept aims to unite nature and technology side by side. So that a good and environmentally friendly city can be created.
