Principles For A New Livability

NEOM - THE FUTURE OF URBAN LIVING

Located in the temperate northwest of Saudi Arabia, NEOM’s diverse climate offers both sun-soaked beaches and snow-capped mountains. NEOM’s unique location will provide residents with enhanced livability while protecting 95% of the surrounding natural landscape.

THE LINE is a civilizational revolution that puts humans first, providing an unprecedented urban living experience while preserving the surrounding nature. It redefines the concept of urban development and what cities of the future should look like.

About the Exhibition

Abbazia di San Gregorio, Venice, Italy | 20th May - 24th September, 2023

The exhibition, ‘Zero Gravity Urbanism – Principles for a New Livability’, hosted at the historic Abbazia di San Gregorio in Venice from 20th May to 24th September 2023, presented the revolutionary design principles and extraordinary possibilities of THE LINE – NEOM’s flagship city.

The exhibition unveiled the work behind Zero Gravity Urbanism – the concept underpinning the design of THE LINE that has been developed in collaboration with the global architecture community.

In this exhibition, seven key principles were defined and brought to life through the proposals of architects and urban thinkers, who are envisioning the foundations of a new livability in NEOM.

In addition to THE LINE, other NEOM regions were presented, including Oxagon, Trojena, and Sindalah.

The exhibition hosted a series of public events, featuring leading architects, academics and urban thinkers from around the world.

All events took place at the Abbazia di San Gregorio, Venice.
