Shymkent, located in a southern part of the Republic of Kazakhstan, is the third-most populous city in Kazakhstan. The city was built in the 12th century and it has been flourished for centuries. Now, Shymkent has been aspiring for the next quantum leap through mega-scale urban development, Shymkent New City Development. The development site is connected A-2 road, close to the Shymkent Zoo, and located in the outer part of Shymkent. Significance of historical context engraved in the Shymkent city center will continue to serve the spirit of city and locals, Shymkent New City development will deliver a new standard of pleasant & modern living. The entire development site consists of 9 rectangular districts. This proposal suggests a design guideline of 3 districts in the west-south corner.
All residential units, surrounded by four city edges, face to their own park. Responding to the four different edges of the district creates various aspects of the project. Block-type housing can develop streetscapes and courtyards with a grid system. Grid systems are carefully studied and used in this proposal to provide efficient systems, dynamic streetscapes, comfortable residential blocks, and other mixed-use buildings. A series of internal courtyards ensure the quality of life of the residents, allowing them to enjoy various outdoor activities in the front yard.
