While Chen Xin was redesigning the mining machinery, the design draft of the dome city that had passed the preliminary review had also been completed and submitted to various design institutes.
Compared with the initial draft, which was just a conceptual design, the completed subsequent design drawings are much more detailed, but this is still only a preliminary plan, mainly to improve the detailed functional area divisions that were not in the first draft. Details such as the design and layout of the city.
As for more detailed design work such as water and electricity pipelines, we will not continue to follow up until we are actually selected.
After all, although designers from various design institutes say that they no longer have commercial design tasks and their work at hand is much freer, they are not such a waste of manpower.
But even so, the number of new designs that have been gathered is still an astonishing number.
In any case, this is to design an entire city. Even if it is just a pocket city with a diameter of no more than five kilometers according to the prior requirements, it still has to have all the functions that a city should have.
A city should have municipal office buildings, schools, hospitals, commercial streets, residential areas, green belts, parks, etc. specially requested by Chen Xin...
Each functional area needs to be designed separately, and each building needs a separate design drawing. Even if there is no need for detailed structural design inside each building, the appearance and size need to be completed in advance.
Even if this is just a pocket city, in the end every design will be handed over with dozens or hundreds of drawings.
Fortunately, network communications have been restored, and it is not easy to transport paper drawings. Each design institute still submits electronic drawings.
This is undoubtedly good news for Chen Xin, which means that he does not need to review every design drawing one by one.
Unfortunately, there are more than a dozen designs that have passed the preliminary selection, each with dozens or hundreds of pictures. Even if you go through them all quickly, it will take a long time, not to mention that you need to read them carefully in order to review and come up with a suitable plan.
Fortunately, with the electronic version, you only need to transfer these drawings to your watch, and you can directly use nanomolecules to project all the details on the drawings, and understand the details of the entire design plan in a more intuitive three-dimensional model. detail.
And for Chen Xin, he can also directly use nanomolecules to project VR equipment, calculate the drawings into three-dimensional images, and experience immersively what it is like to live in the city designed on the drawings.
It is precisely because of these two methods that Chen Xin is not slow in reviewing the drawings.
Being able to pass the preliminary review, these designs naturally have their own advantages.
Although it is probably the first time for various design institutes to design such a pocket city, it does not trouble them.
Municipal planning of a city is something that every city has, and this urban layout design provides a lot of reference and experience, allowing various design institutes to achieve perfection in urban layout planning.
This is not a boast, because if the planning and layout of a city is viewed from a plane, there is an optimal solution when the scale of the city is limited.
There are standard answers to what kind of layout and streets can radiate more areas and allow functional buildings to play a greater role.
Therefore, when various design institutes strive to achieve perfection in their designs, the planning and layout actually end up with the same result.
Being able to break the framework of this standard answer, make innovations, and show something different is the embodiment of the true design skills of each design institute.
For example, the design institute that cooperated with the design institute put the energy tower and ecological greenhouse outside the dome. In fact, it is not uncommon in the designs submitted by various design institutes.
Most of the designs that Chen Xin receives have more or less unique designs like this. Only a very small part of the design drafts have no innovative designs or unique features.
This kind of design draft without these unique designs is obviously not attractive to Chen Xin.
Of course, he wouldn't say that he would just eliminate these design drafts that have no characteristics. After all, although the design that is quite satisfactory has no characteristics, it has one advantage, that is, the standard answer will not have any shortcomings.
Compared with some unique designs that are deliberately adopted for the sake of innovation, regular designs are more in line with the idea of moderation.
Sometimes unique and unique designs may not be suitable for everyone, nor may they meet everyone's needs and aesthetics, but a well-formed design will not have such a problem.
Although the standard answer is not amazing, at least it can be accepted by everyone and is more suitable for large-scale promotion.
However, Chen Xin still prefers some unique designs, or creative and ingenious solutions.
Most people can come up with a standard answer, but not everyone has fantastic and creative ideas. Being able to make your own unique addition to the standard answer is naturally more attractive.
For example, in the design that Chen Xin is currently watching in VR, the designer creatively adopted the design of a circular street, using three rings of different sizes inscribed as the street pattern of the entire dome city, and elevated it Once in the air, enough green space is left on the ground, which is a very ingenious design.
This somewhat applies the model of overpasses and greening under overpasses, but I have to say that this design is very interesting.
Three tangent rings, each ring is closed in one direction, and the roads in the three rings are all in the same direction. In this way, there will naturally be no traffic jams at intersections. This can It is said that it starts from another way of thinking and solves the problem of urban traffic congestion. It does not even need traffic lights.
This kind of design is undoubtedly very ingenious and innovative, breaking the traditional straight-line design of roads. Although it seems a bit inconvenient at first glance, if you think about it carefully, you can find the convenience of such a road.
As for design ingenuity like this, among the design plans Chen Xin received, each one was more or less unique in its own way, which surprised Chen Xin.
It's just that the design of the dome city will only adopt one plan in the end. Even if Chen Xin wants to pass more plans, he will eventually screen out all other plans and leave only one final plan.
If possible, Chen Xin would actually like to combine the excellence of each design plan and then consolidate it into one set of plans to draw on the strengths of each and create a design that combines the advantages of each design plan. .
