Descripción
Sumario:Harvard University Graduate School of Design was the leader of this research project, which took place in 2011-2015, entitled Gulf Sustainable Urbanism (GSU). Scholars from Oman, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait, Iraq and Iran (in geographic order) contributed to the research. A study of urbanization patterns of the past was conducted for eight coastal cities and two associated hinterland cities in eight countries surrounding the Gulf. Urban and regional histories were summarized to understand the complex relationships that generated long-lasting urban forms and efficient building designs.
