About this title

Synopsis

Climate change is severely impacting cities and their surrounding areas, highlighting the need for new visions of the future in multiple facets of our lives. Building on its previous work in metropolitan planning and design, MetroLab has developed a visionary mapping approach to address the climate crisis on the urban scale. It aims to identify real needs for action and to show new pathways with a particular focus on the Vienna metropolitan area.

The creative mapping approach reveals multilayered spatial phenomena, functional linkages, and spatial relationships between the city and its surroundings, visually communicating key trends and illustrating how climate goals can be achieved through integrated, cross-border development.

• Innovative approach for regional and city planning
• Mapping as a central method for integrated development
• Developed by Vienna’s award-winning urban design think tank MetroLab
