The urban vision of Naujoji Akmenė city development includes solutions to local issues, the synergy of the potential of the city municipality and the Western Wood Group (VMG), and urban guidelines for coordinated development.

The initiative of VMG, Akmenė Free Economic Zone and Akmenė District Municipality aims to extend the urban structure of the Naujoji Akmenė: four new residential-housing and mixed-use districts, as well as a city park are being created. The development of Naujoji Akmenė city began in 1947 as the population grew in correlation with construction of the new Cement Plant. Today, the city is expanding again to accommodate VMG factory workers and their families. In the project we are developing 4 residential / mixed-use quarters of various density and function as well as a public park. Different building architecture is being developed and variety of functional typologies is created (restaurants, cafes, shops, services and other public functions). The districts are interconnected by newly formed human-scale city streets. The harmonious urban fabric of the city is being designed, which allows the gradual development of the territory and vibrant urban life at the same time.
