Interactive Bucharest Masterplan

Overview

The Bucharest masterplan illustrates the historical and contemporary identity of the city through its key urban hotspots, areas of influence/neighborhoods, and emerging centers of relevance. The map is designed to reveal the historical identity of each neighborhood, tracing its roots to the urban hotspots that once defined it — even if these places of identity are no longer present.

Each Voronoi polygon represents a neighborhood around a historical hotspot, marking the extent of its influence. The goal of this map is to understand how these areas have evolved from their historical origins and what direction they are heading in today. Overlayed on the map are blue markers, which indicate places of new identity. These areas may not be connected to Bucharest’s historical 1927 identity but hold significance in the city’s contemporary urban fabric.
