Forest City - Living in a Green Oasis
Forest City is a lush green artificial island city located at the border of Malaysia and Singapore. This city is built with the core concept of environmental protection and promoting sustainable development, aiming to create a community that harmoniously coexists with the natural environment. The city’s design takes into consideration ecological conservation and biodiversity, while emphasizing the use of green technology and renewable energy. Forest City will become an ideal place for people to live, work, and enjoy various modern facilities and conveniences. Additionally, this city will establish a close cooperation with the surrounding areas to jointly promote sustainable development and ecological conservation goals. The construction of Forest City will bring new driving forces for economic and social development in the region, while providing a beautiful and healthy living environment.
Vertical Green Building Design
Forest City collaborates with the world’s top planning company, Sasaki
to adopt the most advanced urban planning concepts and create a vibrant and healthy metropolis for residents worldwide. Forest City is not just a city, but also a forest. We aim to not only bring the city back to the forest but also establish an organic symbiotic relationship between the city and the forest. Green vegetation will cover the buildings, and the ground will be transformed into parks, creating a green environment as far as the eye can see. Every day, people will live in gardens, breathe in forests, and enjoy nature. Forest City will achieve land-intensive utilization and sustainable ecological development, making another revolutionary breakthrough in addressing the challenges of modern urbanization and the integration of production and living.
Smart City Construction
Forest City utilizes smart city technology to build a city information resource network and achieve the integration of urban elements. Individuals, businesses, buildings, and facilities can obtain network-authenticated identities, enabling mutual recognition and collaboration. This will promote efficient business operations and innovation, while improving environmental management and protection, providing more opportunities and resources for enterprises, and driving the development and prosperity of the city.
Forest City adopts a greening system from the ground to the roof, with a total green area of 2.86 million square meters and vertical greening of approximately 256,000 meters. This helps plants absorb carbon dioxide, reduce the urban heat island effect, and lower the energy consumption of cooling and heating systems. Forest City also utilizes smart applications to facilitate convenient travel, providing infrastructure for walking and cycling, making the city greener and more flexible. At the same time, Forest City uses advanced technologies to enhance various aspects of urban life, inspiring creativity and vitality in people. The city achieves integrated operations in smart management, smart transportation, smart security, smart communities, and smart homes.
As an advocate of the “sponge city” concept, Forest City constructs a water circulation and reuse system, collecting and treating all sewage and establishing an independent recycled water system for building roof greening, vertical greening, outdoor green irrigation, and more. Currently, most of the green water in Forest City comes from recycled water treatment, and in the future, seawater desalination technology will be used to achieve efficient utilization of water resources.
