“
If master planning were a form of surgery on an anaesthetized city, Integral Urbanism might be regarded as a form of acupuncture on a fully alert and engaged city. By opening up blockages along “urban meridians,” just as acupuncture and other forms of bioenergetic healing open blockages along the energy meridians of our bodies, this approach can liberate chi, or the life force of a city and its dynamic communities. Opening urban meridians may be applied to existing built environments as well as new development, and it can take various forms, depending on the context. It may call for the creation of vital hubs of activity, a quality civic space or green space, easing movement and facilitating connections, or other appropriate responses.
