Review: "In EcoMasterplanning, Ken Yeang provides a comprehensive introduction to the ideas and principles that lie behind the many masterplans that he has designed. In a highly visually driven format, the book illustrates over 30 master plans produced by Yeang. These are accompanied by explanatory diagrams of the ideas and devices used in the masterplans, as well as plans and drawings of the actual plans. The book will feature masterplans designed for sites from around the world, including those for Amsterdam, Gwongzhou, Istanbul, Kuala Lumpar, Kuwait, Macau, Mumbai, Singapore and Vancouver."--BOOK JACKET.
