Kongo Street runs vertically between Kariakoo market and Msimbazi Street, which is where the main daladala routes pass through. With the crowd of the market and the commuters passing through these major transportation nodes, both ends of Kongo Street are bursting with energy. The major accesses to the new walkway resepect the existing systems of logic in either points but organize the flows and energies by adding another level above the ground.

SOUTH ACCESS 30

Kongo Street seems to end at an eight-story building in the south, an illegal construction that blocks the flow, but it actually continues down the narrow alley to the daladala stop on Uhuru Street. This alley is only 5-7m wide but in addition to the pedestrians coming to and from the daladala stop, it has clothing shops, jewelry stands, and hand traders, making it

Design Concept

Fluid Formalization An elevated walkway structure is proposed to provide a ‘fast-lane’ for those who are commuting into other areas of Kariakoo while acting as furniture/ shading element for the commercial activity on the street level.

congestion

The design aim is to preserve the original fluidity of the market while structuring the informal market activities, allowing sustainable growth of the market area.

PRODUCED BY AN AUTODESK EDUCATIONAL PRODUCT

The project site has two important structures, one is the new canal (named kênh dào nuoc song: living water) that forms component of the water-based public transportation system and the other is the existing Ca Mau Airport. The aim of the design was to create a new housing district in Ca Mau that could accommodate the city’s flooding problems and airport pollution while demonstrating new ways of living with water.

cross section A-A’

Sørkedalen has a long history as an area for agriculture and recreation. Recently, the agricultural land has lost most of its function as the food produced is mostly for the farm animals but the fields still remain an important feature of cultural landscape. With only a few houses scattered along the landscape, the feeling of the place is still very much rural.

The design scheme proposed aims to keep this rural sense of place while accomodating for the growing population of Oslo.

SITE ANALYSIS PROBLEMS

++ noise and air pollution

++ pedestrian accessibility to riverbank

++ lack of green space

TRAFFIC NODE amount of traffic at main intersections

A visit to the site and some research revealed that the health problems that residents claim to have due to their proximity to POSCO were actually due to heavy traffic around the neighborhood. The main arteries of Pohang city coincide at the corner of the site. The fourway at the this corner is connected to a bridge, the main route for all city traffic going to/coming from POSCO factories.

PROPOSAL

SOLUTION#1 CORNER GUARD

>> preserve urban fabric >> deck housing community >> reduction of car lanes into park >> increase green space >> complex with cultural/commercial facilities

As one of the solutions, the lower section of the site was converted into a "corner guard" from the traffic node by creating a buffer of green. A multi-level, sloped community center wraps around the edge of the park to act as a membrane for the site: blocking out the noise and air pollution caused by heavy traffic while attracting visitors to the cultural complex and open green space that lies behind it.
