Tekuma Frenchman provided a strategic vision to guide the spatial planning of the city and develop urban design guidelines at different scales to support the vision for 2050. City real estate data, contextual legal compliances and infrastructure assessment were provided by consortium members. Tekuma Frenchman was then mandated to identify with the client the urban challenges and objectives, design a strategic vision, and produce guidelines at regional, city and neighborhood level.
