The epidemics are hostile to urbanization.

The world has faced an unprecedented series of crises, growing viruses and increasing economic collapse.

In addition, millions of workers suffers and loses their jobs, and the political and social repercussions affecting the lives of human societies.

We find that cities, urban spaces and skyscrapers were all designed to be mobile, collectively active and full of life, ignoring human density as the objective and main enemy in the era of covid-19.

Hence, sanitary isolation has become a method of life, especially after the emergence of covid-19 pandemic and its various pandemics followed.

Therefore, a new era has been emerged for healthy technological cities that require unique creative energy, honest confrontation and a new logic for the meaning of life, beside the value of a just economy, the future of human societies, and the role of architect who fights, resists and carries the concerns of his country and those of all human beings.

Given the urgent need to build millions of new housing units to meet the local needs of society in accordance with security and safety standards and precautionary measures to be taken in the design of housing interior spaces in line with achieving sanitary insulation in a more flexible, safer and more enjoyable manner, there is a need to have a practical and detailed thinking to develop contemporary designs for technological cities characterized by healthy, functional and economically efficient environment that meets current and future requirements and confronts sudden health crises, with a view to provide a healthy, safe, humanitarian and live able environment.

Hence, there is a need to apply strategies and factors of housing urban planning to the latest new cities of the vision of 2030 AD for the city of "Administrative Capital of New Republic", in accordance with the latest architectural, engineering and planning designs, achieving all safe and modern lifestyles suitable for different needs and tastes, to include: Economic, urban, design and technological standards, so as to become a technological, sustainable, healthy, self-sufficient and safer city, and be more supportive of social communication and physical distancing at the same time.
