The transition town in Girona (Spain) created a road map for a sustainable future of the city by proposing a number of changes in the areas of energy production, health, education, economy, and agriculture. The Sustainable Ecovila La Flor de la Vida is an innovative project of sustainable urban growth based on a natural geometric pattern. The concept of this sustainable Ecovila allows the development of an economy that respects human beings, where the project itself marks a new paradigm of economic efficiency. This geometric pattern is “The Flower of Life”. It is an ancient symbol that has a perfect shape in terms of proportion and harmony. This harmonic proportion is what makes this project a new reference for future sustainable garden city design constructions. In this way, the Sustainable Ecovila Project unites respect for the Earth and the environment, energy efficiency, architectural beauty and a sustainable economy.
