22. Master Planning - 'Overseeing' Denairsk

1,154 Views

The first day of 2014 and with some spare time, I have finally managed to finish the city of the season.

Building such kind of cities really takes time. Although my cities has never been too big and complex, I wish they suit the preset theme well: architectural theme, transport, terrain and the connections with its neighbour on the regional map…… Snowy theme also make the production take longer than usual.

I hope you enjoy the update, and I also wish you have a wonderful new year!

As usual, comments and replies are absolutely welcome :)

====================================================

Besides from winter and snow, one big topic of Denairsk is the socialist style. Major parts include social housing, flag and symbols, modernism, nationally owned industries and governmental organizations. Creation is based on my perception on the topic, with influences from books, films and literature, plus references from real cities in the former Soviet and Eastern Europe. Most plugisn are specifically used for such themes, particularly those from Poland.

More than half of the map is mountain and forest, and the population concentrates in the social housings of the new town, mostly low-wealth. Railway connects to east, south and west through the entire city, and roads to east and north. Steel production is the core of the economy of Denairsk, and mineral extraction as the supportive role.

(I know the naming is very lame and please bear me, I just want to give some foreign feeling for the city!)

Huston: Lol, no citizens in Denaisk are allowed to forget the 'true' source of joy…… if you know what I mean.

Benedict: Thanks! I don't give heavy touches on the story, but just some thin background concepts to aid the picture.
