BARRAS METRO Barras, Glasgow December - May 2022
Metro stations are usually considered fast paced environments, where people visit to get to a destination - it’s a stop before arriving at the place you desire. This thesis proposal challenges this notion and reimagines the metro station as a destination, a social hub where people gather to socialise and linger rather than simply a waiting area for the next journey. The concept of slowing down time by introducing elements, spaces and moments where people could potentially get lost and meander at their own pace is investigated thus creating more lasting impressions. The character of spaces differs between levels; above ground providing a commercial element to the scheme whereas below ground, the quirky and true Barras charm is celebrated. Furthermore, using the metro station as a way in which to connect different spaces is also explored and celebrated with the aid of structural elements as well as creating more of a dialectic between the below and above ground spaces with the use of the winter garden. In the end the everyday metro operations become but a backdrop to the very vibrant and varied programme the building offers.

Improved Transport Networks Improved transport networks Despite having the third oldest underground in the world, Glasgow has never extended its metro system and as a result is underused for a city of its size (Get Glasgow Moving, 2016). The lack of accessibility to wider metro links away from the city centre means that the population rely heavily on vehicular access, with the highest mode of transport in Glasgow being by car. In a bid reduce the reliance on vehicles in Glasgow, our proposal sees the introduction of several new metro stops, strengthening links between the East and West of the city. As well as reducing harmful emissions by having less cars on the road, the reduction in vehicular use will also improve traffic congestion in the city region.

Existing/Proposed Metro Other key districts are highlighted with transport via the existing/ proposed metro. It is clear to see that west Glasgow has more established links and districts closer in proximity. The proposed metro hopes to reconnect the east with the west of Glasgow.
Part of the urbans group strategy was to propose several new metro stops creating a new loop which would connect the transport links between the East and West. Within this new loop the Barras metro station within the Market City was envisoned to become the most important station, a terminus station that encourages visitors and 51 socialisation, a narrative my thesis will build upon.

The edge condition will be a CFA piled retaining wall in order to resist the pressure of the soil and create a box which follows the shape of the building underground. Advantages to this method is the retaining wall is created before excavation begins. This minimises the disruptions to the surrounding context.
The gridded column structure has been designed so that the underground and the spaces above read as a single construction. There are wide openings between the columns which are then filled with double glazing.

ENVIRONMENTAL STRATEGY| PROPOSAL
MECHANICAL VENTILATION
VENTILATION 1 The ventilation strategy will consist of
a mixture of natural and mechanical ventilation. The environmental strategy is largely driven by the winter garden, specifically the atrium space. This space not only allows natural daylight to flood through the building but also acts as a natural stack effect. This aids in filtering out the stale warm air within the platforms caused by the trains travelling through the tunnels and creating a more comfortable environment to be in.
3
2 Natural
ventilation will be controlled by opening windows in the summer to allow fresh air to come in or kept closed in the winter to trap heat.
BRICK GRILLS
Mechanical ventilation with heat recovery will be used for the bathrooms of the hotel and to restaurants for example. The warm, extracted air is passed through a heat exchanger recovering the heat before being expelled outside. The fresh cool outside air is extracted through the heat exchanger, avoiding contact with the contaminated air, then it is pre-warmed before it is distributed to the required spaces. These ducts will be concealed above the suspended ceiling.

DOUBLE GLAZING AND RECESSED WINDOWS 8 High performance double glazed windows minimises heat loss during winter + large window openings provided to gain solar energy for the winter.
RAINWATER HARVESTING Where the roof comes up to allow for access on to the roof gardens, these will be hard surface roofs. The harvested rainwater will be stored in an underground tank then be used to irrigate the roof gardens and for grey water use.

USING WASTE HEAT ENERGY FROM METRO TUNNELS 9
Warm air from the metro tunnel is extracted by an underground fan. The warm air then travels over a series of water filled pipes heating the water inside and is warmed to 80 degrees using heat pumps then travels underground to a series of pipes and is transferred to the hotels and restaurants.

15 MINUTE CITY Barras, Glasgow September - December 2022
Taking inspiration from Anne Hidalgo’s Ville De Quart De Quart D’ Heure, our 15-minute city will celebrate Glasgow’s Barras area as a destination. The Barras has had a long history operating as a successful market however it has lost traction over the years. Our aim was to regenerate this within our proposal. Our 15 Minute Market city will introduce pedestrianised streets to revitalise an area which has become disconnected through its reliance on vehicles. Stitching the site together reduces vehicular traffic to create a healthier and safer streetscape for the Barras’ residents. A central square and surrounding buildings will create places for community to gather, strengthening local ties to the Barras. Considering the wider context within our proposal, a series of three other 15-minute cities have been created with fast transport links that do not exceed 30 minutes. The cities chosen each have their own characteristics ie. Barras’ Market which encourages visitors.

Slovenska Street, Ljubljana, Slovenia
Downtown Brooklyn, BIG Group
Bercy Village, Paris
Slovenska Street, a main street in the city of Ljubljana, Slovenia was transformed from a four-lane road dominated by traffic to a shared space giving priority to pedestrians, cyclists and public transport. The urban space consists of a concrete road surface and paved pedestrian areas. Living the streets are manna ash trees, creating a divider between the pedestrianised walkways and the road. Street furniture has also been incorporated into the scheme.
In 2020, BIG and WXY released a masterplan for Downtown Brooklyn that aims to reduce vehicular access, reorienting streets to prioritise foot traffic and pedestrians. The masterplan seeks to create playful environments where the public can congregate outdoors. The installation of street furniture, planting and lighting generates safe, shared spaces that are visually pleasing to the eye; the curbless areas prioritising pedestrians opposed to vehicles.
Opened in 2002, Bercy Village incorporates a cobblestoned pedestrian street bordered by shops, restaurants and cafes. The public are able to browse between the different spaces that line the street, safe from any vehicular movement. Furniture and planting is also placed throughout the street, allowing pedestrians to sit and relax whilst in a pleasant environment. Pop-up coverings and stalls can also be found within the space, allowing for outdoor dining and socialising.

2022| LIVE PROJECT, CALLISTER GARDENS| OXTON, WIRRAL
CALLISTER GARDENS OXTON, WIRRAL NOVEMBER - December 2022
Located in Oxton, Wirral, the Callister Trust was set up in 1925 for the welfare of women and young girls in Birkenhead. Today, the Garden is a safe space for many and is a place where people of all backgrounds come together to socialise, relax and engage with the outdoors. The intention for this project is to upgrade the allotment space, adding small scale interventions whilst encouraging community interaction and enhancing the Garden for children. The key design concepts specified to the right highlight how we propose to do so. Given that the target audience is young children, it seems logical to try and encourage their curiosity about nature through the use of their senses. Our concept is based on the idea of taking children on a journey through a series of spaces, each with a key sense, in order to improve their connection to nature in a playful yet educational manner. An open brief was set looking at ways the gardens provisions for children can be enhanced. A mixture of activities and installations were included to encourage children to explore on their own and to build confidence and value in the outdoors. Parents of under 5s were also encouraged to be part of this learning experience.

LANDSCAPE MASTERPLAN|PROPOSAL
1
OBSERVATION ZONE The first area visitors encounter on their journey around the Garden is the observation space, where children are able to view the mini wildflower meadow, look for insects in the handmade bug boxes and draw what they have observed in the proposed seating area. This particular space is designed to provoke the sense of sight.
2
MAKING ZONE Children can get creative in the making zone. Activities such as leaf art and making flower arrangements will take place in the making zone, with a side observation deck for parents to supervise the children. Touch will be the primary sense used within this space.
3
GROWING ZONE Arriving at the growing zone, children will have the opportunity to experiment with different ways of growing, for example using cardboard boxes as well as vertical growing utilising existing wall structures.
4
GALLERY A gallery space is proposed at the fourth point of the Garden and offers the chance for the children to showcase their artwork produced in the making zone. A twigged roof structure is introduced as a temporary structure during the autumn / winter months, allowing the space to be used all year round.
5
PLAYING AREA The playing area is a less controlled space, allowing the children to run around and interact with one another. Playing features such as a sand pit and a timber swing set have been incorporated into the design.
6
STORYTELLING The storytelling zone is a chance for the children to relax and reflect on their experience whilst sitting around the existing campfire.

2021| HOUSING PROJECT| DINGLE, LIVERPOOL
WELLINGTON COMPLEX Dingle, Liverpool January - May 2021
Following from the Group Urban Design Project, the chosen site is located in Dingle, situated in the south of the city of Liverpool and is in the south of the Wellington Square Masterplan, offering great panoramic views of the River Mersey, the Suds and the Wirral. The vision for the masterplan was to create a sense of belonging in Dingle, with the Square bringing different communities together and encouraging community interaction. This theme is continued in the housing scheme. The housing proposal seeks to inspire community cohesion and the project proposes an inter-generational cohousing complex accommodating a combination of typologies within one site. A mixture of both apartments and terrace housing is proposed, centred around an internal courtyard, promoting activity and interaction between residents and eliminating the feeling of isolation.

TYPOLOGIES| PROPOSAL
The unit typologies for this project were developed through gathering data on the demographic profile of existing wider context, population, household compositions and demographic trends.
GROUND FLOOR
FIRST FLOOR
SECOND FLOOR
According to the demographics of the site, the majority of the existing household compositions are made up of one or two people suggesting a need for one and two bedroom typologies which would make up the majority of the units proposed. 0-18yrs
The site also consists of a high percentage of people who have long term sickness or are disabled which also suggests a need for accessible dwellings in the area this has been provided in the scheme. Analysis of the demographic trends showed that children are now more likely to remain in the family home for longer than in the past. More and more households include adult children living with parents, to resolve any rise in tension between the two different demographics the 3 bed terraces proposed can be converted from one demise to two demises.

Wellington Complex aims to provide a variety of residential typologies within one site, including a mixture of apartments and terraces. The focus for the interior and light study is the Type A Single Person (later couple) apartment. This apartment was designed for a freelancer who spends most of his/her day working from home as such there is an office space connected to the bedroom and balcony. The living spaces which are used more in the evenings or for meetings with clients are intentionally facing north whereas the rooms used most during the day, office, bedroom and balcony face south with views towards the internal courtyard.

INSULATION AND THERMAL MASS (HEATING AND COOLING)
High quality thermal insulation and thermal mass is used in order to reduce the amount of heat loss and energy consumption within the dwellings. Reduction in both heating and cooling will also cut in C02 emissions.
COMMUNAL BIN AND RECYCLING STORES
PERMEABLE PAVEMENT
DECIDIOUS TREES
INCREASED C CYCLE STOR
Segragated waste for refuse and recycling will be provided for the residents. The green waste can then be later re-used on site in the green spaces.
Throughout the courtyard space pemeable paving will be used to reduce runoff by trapping and slowly releasing precipitation into the ground instead of allowing it to flow into storm drains.
These are planted in the courtyard to provide shade in the summer months and in winter allow for more sunlight.
Each dwelling will b space within the es increased bike stor more sustainable fo
Stack ventilation
SITE SECTION - NTS
GROUND SOURCE HEAT PUMP
LOW FLOW TOILETS AND TAPS
Fluid flowing through underground pipes absorb heat from the ground and this will be later used for underfloor heating for the dwellings
To reduce water consumption, Low flow plumbing fixtures will be installed in the dwellings.
RECESSED BALCONIES As the majority of the balconies provided are located on the south side, these are proposed as recessed thus providing protection from the winds, rain and also shade from the sun.
DOUBLE GLAZING AND RECESSED WINDOWS
RAINWATER HARVESTING
All the dwelling proposed have double glazed windows which reduces heat loss thus ensuring the dwellings are increasingly energy efficient. It also reduces pollution.
Where the roof comes up to allow for access on to the roof gardens, these will be hard surface roofs. The harvested rainwater will be stored in an underground tank then be used to irrigate the roof gardens and for grey water use.

All the materials used will be locally and responsibly sourced and where possible recycled materials will be used such as recycled aluminium for the window and door frames.
There are a series of public, semi public and private spaces available throughout the site creating interactions and a sense of community amongst the residents
The floors and walls have been designed to commply with the robust details to ensure that sound is absorbed and doesnt travel to neighbouring dwellings. Spaces have been isolated both vertically and horizontally
A combination of passive ventilaiton techniques will be used in the scheme. Dual aspect dwellings such as the terraces will use stack ventilation ventilaton and one sided ventilation will be used in other dwellings namely within the apartments.
LOCALLY SOURCED BRICK Where possible this will be in the form of reclaimed brick
SUSTAINABLE FLOORING Wood flooring used in the units will be sustainably sourced and FCSCertified.
ELECTRICAL VEHICLE SHARING The number of car parking spaces is limited to on street parking for the terraces and one parking space per three dwellings for the apartments which are located in the basement. Instead a car club will be implemented where electric cars will be shared amongst residents lowering carbon footprint.
RECYCLED ALUMINIUM Window frames and railing are made of recycled aluminium therefore reducing the overall embodied energy of the complex

PUBLIC LIBRARIES What is the role of the public library in the 21st century realm December - February 2021
The traditional role of the public library has always been to ‘effectively collect, organize, preserve, and make accessible the graphic records of society’ (Harris, 2020) to the general public, and this has remained largely consistent until recently. With the emergence of digital technology, physical books became digitalised (e-books) and a vast amount of research and information became readily accessible to the public. All of this has resulted in libraries undergoing significant changes in order to persevere in this new digital age. Public libraries today do not only contain the traditional function of collections and reading rooms, but they also accommodate a diverse range of new programmes and activities which cater to a broad range of users, operating ‘more and more as new kind of social center [sic]’(Hille, 2018) that has been described as a ‘living room in the city’ (Worpole, 2004, p14). A study conducted by Aabø and Audunson (2012) indicated that the majority of people (55-60%) who visit libraries do so for pursuits unrelated to the transaction of books and other media. This raises the question of whether contemporary libraries have undergone such a transformation as to put their identity as a library into question? How much does the traditional function of the library impact library design today? The term “library” itself derives its meaning from the Latin word “liber” meaning book. So, if the physical collection is no longer taking centre stage in library design, does this mean books have become obsolete? This study will explore and analyse the relationship between the public space of the library and the physical collection of books, to determine if the balance is changing and whether there is a trend emerging. It will focus on the amalgamation of programmes and activities that contemporary libraries contain

today that were not there in the past. This is to illustrate the dramatic shift that public libraries have undergone over their recent history. To assist this study, there will be a thorough literature review of existing research on libraries / library design, with a focus on 21st century libraries. Furthermore, the study will also include a comparative analysis on three case studies of contemporary libraries around the world, with primary research in the form of an interview in order to understand what concepts underpin the design of the public library, in particular regarding the Library of Birmingham. The study will firstly focus on the origins of the library, referring briefly to its history in order to understand the traditional function of the library. The traditional function of the library will also be investigated and illustrated by referring to examples of old traditional libraries in order to demonstrate how their function has evolved. The Public Libraries Act 1850 will be discussed as this marked a shift in the public library typology, particularly in the UK. The literature review will conclude by studying how the digital age has impacted on libraries of today. However, the core of this study will focus on primary analysis of contemporary examples that illustrate this evolution. The three case studies that have been chosen are: The Library of Birmingham (UK), Dokk1 Public Library (Denmark) and Deichman Library (Norway). These examples have been chosen due to their typology, scale and their international recognition as award winning libraries. Each are large public city libraries, ranging from floor spaces of 19,000-35,000 square meters, an important aspect to consider as this would allow for the findings to be as comparable as possible, thus preventing
any anomalies from occurring. Due to the Covid19 pandemic, and the associated travel restrictions, accessing these public libraries has proved difficult and as a result the analysis has relied on literary resources and online photographs. The contemporary library analysis will be split into two sections. The first section will explore the design intent of the library and images will be used to illustrate this spatial exploration. The second section will be primary study, analysing the programmes and activities, demonstrated using a systematic approach via overlays of architectural drawings, and will focus on the following criteria:

2020| URBAN DESIGN PROJECT 1 | DINGLE, LIVERPOOL
WELLINGTON SQUARE Dingle, Liverpool September - November 2020
The aim of the group project was to create a place of belonging within Dingle, A space where the community can come together, enjoy and feel pride in the area in which they inhabit. The proposed scheme envisioned a main square featuring a cruciform axis defining the space. This concept led to the pedestrianisation of Wellington Road, the main route through our site. The functionality of our initial strategy was informed by our comprehensive urban analysis study, identifying the necessity for developing a key urban square located at the foot of ‘The Florrie’, an area which currently offers markets and events but lacking a defined space. Site Sketches
MANIFESTO - To create a place of belonging in an area stricken with the feel of segregation and poverty - Create pride and identity - Space for community integration - Reimagining Wellington Road as a pedestrianised route - Attract custom in the form of cyclist’s increasing the revenue of local businesses 112 Rrezelinda Haziri 2022 Portfolio

Wellington Road Towards Main Square It was important to us that the buildings surrounding the square do not undermine the importance of the Florrie, therefore they are of smaller heights which not only exaggerates the scale of the Florrie but forms an interesting dialogue between the buildings. The spire of the Florrie can be seen overhead at numerous occasions which captures the sight of the pedestrian and encourages them to explore and enter the area. This deliberate juxtaposition of the two spaces creates what Cullen terms as ‘Spatial Drama’ and the ‘view beyond’ is seen ‘as an extra dimension’. (Cullen,1971, 33).

Main Square For a public square it was essential to have a focal point. The focal point is the ‘vertical symbol of congregation’ (Cullen,1971,p26). It is a place for activity, where interaction happens and where possession is either through movement or static form. This vertical symbol for us is the Florrie. The listed buildings architectural features and scale make it obvious that this is what the people have been searching for. As Cullen states ‘ Main Square - Concept Collage this is the spot, stop looking, it is here.’ (Cullen,1971,p26)

Wellington Road from Grafton Street - Concept Collage
Grafton Street Towards Wellington Square In our design we have also applied the changes in level to our advantage as a method of obtaining screened vistas. Walking from Grafton Street to Wellington Road towards the square, the top of the Florrie can be seen but not to its full extent due to the steepness of the road. The area above is unknown until it is revealed and discovered through movement. By keeping the view hidden and only revealing it incrementally the mystery is emphasised which sparks interest to venture further, known as the act of ascending.

Church Square We have also included the use of ‘Narrows’, positioning buildings in close proximity to each other. This nearness creates a direct contrast to the wide square ahead thus creating tension and an interesting dialogue of compression and expansion of spaces.

WELLINGTON SQUARE Dingle, Liverpool November 2020
Following from the group project, I have chosen one of the squares and one of the adjacent pedestrianised routes into the square for my individual public realm project. The main concept for the square is to create a sense of identity where different communities can interact and socialise and this interaction is symbolised by the floorspace material. The pedestrianised route into the square from Mill Street will provide active frontage with live/ work independent stores, providing access to a courtyard through a smaller archway and access to the main square through the main archway.

The square is divided into two zones, active engagement and passive engagement. The active engagement zones will be the focus of activity and socialising and the passive engagement zones will focus on relaxation and observing the surrounding environment. Seating is proposed at 3 areas, the open landscaped zone to the entrance to the square from Wellington Road, a place for reading and leisure, in the middle of the square as seating/stage for events with the Florrie as the backdrop and seating in-front of the Florrie with views to the market square. The building angled towards the Florrie will be mixed-use with spill out space into the square and will provide shade with the use of colonnades that also frame important views of the square. Overall the square itself is proposed to be a flexible space to be used for many different activities. KEY 15. LANDSCAPED READING AND 1. INDEPENDENT LIVE/WORK/SELL SHOPS RELAXING ZONE 2.

HOBBIES AND INTERESTS In my free time, I am a dancer and love choreographing my own routines, playing the piano and creating video music montages. The skills I have learnt through these activities are ones of perseverance, discipline and creativity which I believe will help me in my career path. In the same way a piece of music on a piano takes a lot of time and practice to master, architecture is also an ongoing process which requires a lot of hard work, but the outcome is worth pushing through.
ARCHITECTURAL WORK EXPERIENCE Part 1 Architectural Assistant at Falconer Chester Hall Architects - February 2017- September 2020: For the past three years I have been working as a Part 1 Assistant for an award-winning practice, Falconer Chester Hall Architects in Liverpool. This has been a very enjoyable experience and has reinforced my interest and drive to further pursue architecture. Working alongside experienced colleagues has allowed me to improve my teamwork and communication skills, by observing and participating in team meetings as well as liaising with consultants. As my responsibilities increased, so did my workload. At times, working on three projects simultaneously, which required me to manage my time effectively so that all deadlines were met. Several of these projects have now successfully secured planning permission, experiences that have strengthened my confidence over my abilities. Furthermore, the practice also regularly participates in competitions nationally. These competitions have given me the opportunity to showcase my technical and creative skills using professional software’s such as Photoshop, SketchUp, MicroStation and Revit.
