 Defining Eco-SMART city concept
The main feature of eco-city is to encourage conservation and preservation of ecological and ecosystem
surrounding urban area. Therefore, the development planning must be connecting to nature to sustain
current and future biodiversity as well as reduce climate change.

Eco-smart emphasizes integration of human and green sanctuary within intelligent city. It also should
integrate with green infrastructure to provide a sustainable living environment. In order to create a
balanced biodiversity, eco-smart town prepare ready access to public parks, gardens and public spaces,
with the opportunity for leisure and recreation.

The principle of economy in Eco-SMART city concept is sustainable and efficient

economy that promotes the healthy economic activities and beneficial the aspect of
environment, people and profit.
It has recognize three principle elements including
1)creating self-sustaining economic
2)efficient, competitive and high impact of industrial and commercial,
3) promoting green economy activities , so that, it tries to reap the potential of
environment protection for the economical benefit.
The Eco-SMART Housing (Safe, Mixed-income, Accessible, Reasonably-priced,
Transit-oriented) is designed to stimulate the production of affordable housing for low and
moderate income residents in the city.
The Eco-green Building will contribute in the development planning to success the Eco-
SMART city concept that manages energy efficiency among the building itself. The key
principle of this design is
• green building design,
• green construction
• green materials, intelligent building system (IBS)
• and building energy optimization.
