> in well designed cities

Very few cities are designed to begin with, let alone designed well.

Brasília (Brazil's capital city) is one that IMO is designed, and well designed at that.

Living in Brasília (I have never lived there but I have family and have visited many times) feels a bit like living in a small village with plenty of green and living spaces, where everybody knows each other but at the same time you have everything a big city has to offer just a short-to-medium car trip away. Unfortunately it wasn't designed with public transit in mind, but traffic there is mostly kept away from living and working spaces, so noise and air pollution is kept down anyway.

That is, at least the parts that were in the original city design. It grew though, and that growth was organic and disordered like any other city.
