The new city is called Tianfu; it was designed by the architecture firm Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill, and is being brought to life by the Beijing Vantone Real Estate Co., in partnership with the Chengdu municipal government — of course. Tianfu is designed to provision its 80,000 residents with all the latest green features bundled into a 13 sq km satellite city that sits very much removed from the downtown core of Chengdu.
