New Gate City
New Gate City Values
Freedom: A major quality of our city is that people are free to do anything they please. There are no strict laws, therefore freedom is maximized. Although this sounds problematic, the small size of this society allows people to form meaningful relationships and to trust one another. Furthermore, anyone is allowed to leave and come back whenever they want.

Safety: In our city, we value safety, and we want to make sure that all citizens are safe and feel free to do as they please. There is a significant group in the city that works towards keeping the civilians safe and are at the ready when needed. Since there are easy to follow laws with few people, the crime rate is low, and people can live freely.

Green living: A crucial value of our city is green living. Our city contains many trees and natural plants. This is a mandatory attribute towards happiness because plants can increase morale in the habitat and make people feel welcomed. Moreover, plants are required for a green and healthy environment. Our city does not contain any big factories or machines. Instead, life is simpler because newer technology is absent.

Community: Community is a key value that is crucial to a well-developed city. All citizens get along with each other and respect each other’s rights. People can connect with one another with ease due to the population being small and the housing being walking distance from one another. Without technology in our city, it’s much easier for everyone to talk face to face and converse with one another, thus leading to committed relationships with one another.

Communication Reflection
For this project, we we told to list values that we respect and create a city corelating with those values. for the visual presentation, we Created our city on “City Creator”. We thought that it would be the easiest platform to work on for the both of us. For the project, we wanted both of us to have a say in what we were doing. when sharing ideas, we let each other say our ideas and then try to mix them together. for the work of the project, we split it in half to assure both people are doing their part. we both contributed to the design of the city by letting both sides add to the city. In my opinion, my partner and I worked well together. we were able to get most of the required things done on the first day. Most decisions were made by both contributing ideas and mixing or deciding on one. I was quite satisfied with the end result but if I were to di this again, I would add a fifth value. We didn’t do one because we wanted the work load to be even. overall my partner and I hade no problems and worked well.
