The Dynamic Oasis of the Gulf

Metropolitan Workshop was invited to take part in this exciting competition by the Norplan group, With NSW Arkitekter & Planleggere as the lead architect.

The competition brief asked that the population of the city of Doha is increased from 500,000 inhabitants to around 2 million over the next 15-20 years. The challenge has been to create a sustainable city for the future. Our team have put forward a proposal for green links tying together the city and providing much needed recreational facilities, a top notch new public transport network, and some major infrastructural changes to remove traffic from central Doha and thus freeing up the waterfront.

The centrepiece of the proposal is a large new park, comparable to Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens. The park acts as a showcase for Sport, Leisure, Culture, and Health Tourism together with a new governmental complex. The park will act as a green oasis within the country and become a symbol for the new and dynamic city.


Team: The Norplan Group with
NSW Arkitekter & Planleggere
Metropolitan Workshop
Stup Architects

Metropolitan Workshop Team: Marcus Brett, Margaret Bursa, Rhys Cannon, John Craske, Neil Deely, Daniel Dendra, John Oliver, Tomas Stokke

Wow, thank you Salman! It may seem the plan looks too furturistic, but realistic. The new airport is already almost completed. The current port will be demolished. The bridge-tunnel is interesting though. I am not sure of the tunnel part but I just guessed--so dont take my word on it. But, the whole plan looks realistic. I love the greenergy in the Bidda area--which is already taking effect. THe old buildings there are demolished a long time ago.

After some reading, I've found out (if you didn't know it) that this is sugguestions for Doha's masterplan. Surbana is by the way a company from Singapore, and here are some sugguestions from a norwegian company: http://www.aftenposten.no/kul_und/article1441697.ece

**EDIT** I can translate the website, if you want!
