Abstract

This paper takes the Urban Design of Wuhan high-tech city center as an example, discusses the future urban form of high-tech city, proposes the concept of “Eco-Smart City” which integrates the fundamental idea of “Ecological City”, “Information City” and “Leisure City”, representing the transformation of industrial society to post-industrial society in the future. The “Eco-Smart City” is firstly a natural, harmonious and healthy living environment. Secondly, it is the artificial environment of the high degree of unity with the natural environment. Thirdly, it is not only a carrier of high-tech, but also an incubator of high culture. It is argued “Eco-Smart City” can be developed by the means of hybridizing, integrating, interlinking, overlapping and evolving. The new planning concept is analyzed and examined in case study.
