>In March 2010, the Iraqi Government announced the ‘National Development Plan 2010-2014’ with a need of 3 million housing units with a plan to supply 2 million housing units over five years. >In 2010 the National Investment Commission announced their ‘National Housing Program’ to develop one million housing units in 14 Governorates, 224,000 of which would be in the Baghdad province.
>The Baghdad Bismayah New City Project (BNCP) is currently Iraq’s largest residential project at 1,830 hectares with 100,000 units being built between 2012 and 2019 >In addition, infra-networks such as roads, electricity, water and waste management, along with a cohesive social groundwork of public facilities for commerce, education, and welfare, will make this project a perfect execution of modern urban construction.
>The contract amount was US$7.75 billion and it is planned to accommodate around 600,000 occupants. >The city is located 10km on the outskirts of Baghdad and is the first and biggest city development throughout the history of Iraq.
>To ensure the success of Bismayah, apartments are offered for a down-payment of just$6,300, or 10 percent of the total cost of the smallest 100 sq metre homes, with the balance repaid over 20 years. >Flats in Baghdad in comparison are far pricier, and buyers are required to pay for the apartments in one lump sum.
>The new city, roughly the size of 3,425 football fields, will contain a central business district surrounded by 834 U-shaped apartment towers, schools and social amenities. It will provide a new start for 600,000 Iraqis.
>Residential units are available in sizes of 100, 120, and 140 square meters, and come in two main types: >the Traditional Type, which preserves Islamic values in everyday life, >and the Modern Type which boasts efficient use of large communal spaces.

How many people here are aware of animal experiments where all their basic needs are provided for them? Of the "projects"? These experiments were conducted to see how humans and other animals turn out when they are rendered idle by have no need or conflict. The projects started in the 50s had some bizarre rules and the result of it literally gave us ghetto culture. Every single experiment, whether done on humans, mice, apes or dogs, has ended in disaster and or decimation of the subjects. This project is being funded by the many interests and the cost is very high but this is easily the largest idle human experiment to be conducted and it's failure spells out a very ugly truth.

Housing takes up only part of the entire scheme Public services and amenities are the pinnacle of this city.
The uniformity is a requirement for the study because we are currently viewing a world so resource rich that universal income, medical, food and entertainment will become a common feature of our societies. If we can't manage ourselves as a massive group of idle people the only way to continue moving forward in our pursuits will be to limit the number of people available for necessary tasks. Failure of this test will likely result in manufactured methods of large scale decimation of our species so that we don't all turn into simpletons and murderers. These projects are likely to fail.

I'm well aware but the concept behind construction is uniformity amongst the homes and a uniformity amongst working and living conditions. Then the process gradually lowers both expectations as well as necessary tasks.

Yet it worked surprisingly well in asian countries. The problem of your 'projects' was not because of the architectural theme, it has more to do with your underlying social issues pic related is singapore
The social theme wasn't organic. It was created. I'll give you an example. The oldest and most recognizable ghetto culture sprang up from a rule that fathers couldn't inhabit the government housing projects at night. Want to take a guess how that went when examining today's ghetto cultures?
This has been spammed for a week straight. Fuck off sandnigger

Mind if I remind you these are not free 'gibs' as in the united states The majority of the tenants are mid-class with stable jobs who can actually afford to pay the rent youtube.com/watch?v=T69Odl2GuZk
