GREEN CITY

TEAM: Bora Aliaj, Helen Murch, Isobel Knapp, Matt Coyne

How do we safeguard and deliver high environmental standards and sustainable lifestyles in the context of an increasing intensification of land use?

HIGH ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY

SUSTAINABLE LIFESTYLE

INTESIFICATION

Restoring links between the built environment and nature to provide for human and natural ecosystem needs and wellbeing.

Attempt to reduce people's carbon footprint by providing alternative methods of transportation, energy consumption and diet.

To reach a density of 500 PPH, both the built form and the land use needs to be intesified.

1. Different building typologies to incorporate within the site; 2. Example of shared street and active frontages in the neighbourhood centre; 3. Atmosphere for residential blocks, a mix of public, private and green spaces; 4. Stepped Residential and Commercial Block designed by NL Architects for CBD Development in Amsterdam; 5. Conceptual sketch of main road along the neighbourhood centre, a mix of uses, shared spaces and green areas; 6. Example of how to connect buildings/ street in the air concept.

CONCLUSION - In what ways can we create a green transport corridor using innovative technology? - How can we deliver a fully incorporated green environment through usage of green energy? - How can we ensure that the built environment is adequately connected with nature in high density developments? CONCLUSION - How can we bridge expansive gaps between blocks, whilst keeping efficient movement and high quality place attributes? - How can we maintain place identity, character and heritage whilst intensifying population and land use? - What is the best way to retrofit roof tops for greater efficiency of space utilisation? - How can we maintain a human scale in a high density built environment?
