Correa Valle Valle (CVV), a new Urbanist firm

Correa Valle Valle (CVV), a new Urbanist firm in Coral Gables, Florida, won the First Government Land Development Competition for the Jing Wei Garden site in Shanghai, China. The 737-acre site is planned to be developed in the form of high density (49 du/acre gross) neighborhoods with more than a dozen greens and squares. According to fung shui tradition, residential buildings face north-south. The designers have proposed a system of terraces, balconies, observation towers, and loggias facing east and the west, giving form to the courtyards and streets.
