The final design by Aldo van Eyck and de 8 was shown at the CIAM 8 meeting in 1956.

While the current condition of the town differs from the original design, some of the basic concepts remain.

[4] The organization of the Noordoostpolder area was based on a central nucleus with smaller towns circling around connected by roads back to the center.

Nagele was proposed to be southwest of the main town, and was originally to be planned to contain 300 dwelling units, 3 churches, 3 primary schools, a post office, fire station, hotel, cafes, a clinic, cemetery, sports field, swimming pool and business zone.

Aldo van Eyck proposed that the town be designed around 3 principles: 1. a non-hierarchical organization with mixed social groups, 2. a windbreak of trees to give the village a spatial character and stand out in the polder landscape, and 3. an open green center.
