‘Re-Nova’ (verb)
To renew, rebuild, and reimagine a space, bringing new life and purpose while honoring its roots.
“What we reimagine now will define how Kanaleiland lives, connects, and thrives.”
Project Synopsis
The design intervention titled ‘Re-Nova’ focuses on transforming the Nova Mall located in Kanaleiland, Utrecht, into a revitalized urban space that fosters social cohesion, environmental sustainability, and community engagement. By reimagining and altering the current monofunctional and under-utilised mall structure and its surroundings, the project aims to carve new public spaces that encourage meaningful interaction, a sense of place, and ecological well-being. Re-Nova will act as a catalyst for change, not only in the physical space but also in the social fabric of the neighborhood. The intervention is driven by the intention to establish new forms of public space that go beyond mere utility and aesthetics; they become spaces that nurture community ties, foster well-being, and contribute to environmental balance.
The design involves transforming the underutilized mall and its adjacent spaces into hubs of activity and engagement. Two carefully planned public squares will be central to this transformation. The first square-’Green Commons’ will be anchored in ecology, integrating green infrastructure that enhances biodiversity. The second square-’Social Commons’ will prioritize social cohesion, aiming to create spaces for interaction, relaxation, and community-driven events. The contrasting design of the two squares aims to balance ecological integration with social interaction, transforming the Nova into a cohesive public space.
This project aims to serve as a model for the evolution of shopping malls, redefining them as not just places of commerce, but as catalysts for environmental awareness, social engagement, and urban renewal. It is a space that supports both people and planet, offering a glimpse into the future of urban spaces where ecological consciousness and human connection are at the heart of everyday life.

Surrounding the graphic are labeled items that represent the metaphorical “ingredients” and “tools” used in the design process. At the bottom of the graphic, a character is shown working on a laptop, representing the designer. This person bridges the conceptual and practical, blending thought and action in the design process.
Notions on Sustainable Development
Carrying Forward from SUET | Assignment 1
“Symbiotic Urbanism: A New Paradigm for Sustainable Development”
Sustainable development, traditionally understood through environmental, social, and economic lenses, often treats each domain as separate pillars to be balanced. However, as we face the complexities of climate change, urbanization, and social fragmentation, a new approach is required—one that transcends traditional silos and fosters a symbiotic relationship between nature, people, and built environments. This approach can be coined as Symbiotic Urbanism.
Symbiotic Urbanism reimagines cities not formed by isolated systems but as integrated ecosystems where urban growth, ecological preservation, and human well-being coexist in dynamic, mutually reinforcing ways. Just as in nature, where species co-evolve and rely on one another for survival and growth, cities can evolve in ways that enhance ecological health, enrich social cohesion, and promote economic vitality, all within the same framework.
Symbiotic Urbanism then cannot be a concept for individual cities; it is a global model for rethinking development. As cities grow, they should embrace their role as stewards of the planet, fostering environments that don’t just sustain life and resources, but enhance and grow them. Following are the core values for this approach:
Ecology as the Foundation of Urban GrowthSocial Cohesion through Ecological Spaces
Seeing ecological intergrattion not as a reactive solution but as a foundational principle when working with development of cities and urban realm.
Designing spaces that are not just “green” but also social, interactive, and flexible, to foster a culture of collective care for both the environment and communities.
Circular Economies as Urban DNARegenerative Development over Sustaining the Status Quo
Embracing closed loop systems where waste is seen as a resource, and every product or material within the city has a second chance at productivity.
Instead of focusing solely on minimizing harm or maintainingthecurrentstateofthe world,creatingsystems that enrich the environment over time must be adopted.

Conclusions:
Mental mapping is an interesting method to remember quick details of site, important locations and eye-catching and curious phenomenons that happen around the site. This simple techniques brings a basic introduction to Kanaleiland and Nova.
First Impressions ?!...
Most buildings in Kanaleiland feature lifeless facades and lack active frontages that could foster street life, providing people with reasons to pause and engage with their surroundings.
Within the Stamp Module of Housing, expansive green courtyards have been created, but many of these areas consist primarily of lawns with only a few trees, raising the question of whether these green spaces truly support biodiversity.
In most streets, over 75% of the street space is taken up by asphalt or paved parking, underscoring the imbalanced allocation between car-dependent and pedestrian-friendly mobility.
Even larger public spaces, which could serve a variety of community purposes, are taken up by surface parking, despite the presence of an underutilized parking tower. As a result, people are forced to compete with cars for access to public space.

Conclusions from SUET
The SUET analysis provided a detailed and comprehensive understanding of the site’s surface and subsurface conditions. Beyond mapping major infrastructure lines, it also revealed critical urban challenges, such as the formation of urban heat islands, areas prone to rainwater logging, and streets contributing to noise pollution. These findings underscored significant livability barriers that needed to be addressed through thoughtful design. Furthermore, the analysis highlighted a lack of ecological biodiversity; although much of the district appears green, the vegetation predominantly consists of turf, offering limited ecological value.

REFLECTION
The Project: Results and Design Thinking
Spatial Design
I believe that any design intervention within the urban spatial realm has the potential to create a ripple effect, with impacts that extend across multiple scales and endure over time. My vision for Nova aligns with this principle, aiming to introduce a transformative change that will influence and inspire new spatial practices in both Kanaleiland and Utrecht West. Through its connections and drivers, I am confident that Nova will spark lasting shifts in these neighborhoods and beyond.
Ecology and Climate
As humans are primary drivers of change on this planet, our relationship with nature must be reflected in our spatial design. In urban renewal projects, particularly those not originally conceived with contemporary climatic and ecological challenges in mind, it is essential for designers to introduce residents to a new way of living in harmony with nature. In this context, Nova’s outer courtyard represents the first step towards this shift in Kanaleiland—designed to embrace nature and mitigate climate impacts at a micro scale.
The Human Dimension
There are various ways people engage with public spaces, and this engagement is largely influenced by the quality of the space itself—how enjoyable it is, how long people choose to stay, and how they interact within it, whether actively or passively. With this in mind, the primary goal for Nova, as an existing public space, is to enhance its quality and expand the possibilities for social life within it.
The Person: Inner development and Reflective Urbanist
This quarter has been particularly challenging for me due to personal health and environmental factors that affected my performance and created significant setbacks. These struggles often made me appear as though I was not making enough progress, and I grappled with phases of self-confidence and self-doubt about my project and working process.
At the start of the course, I outlined core values for an urbanist, including resilience and consistency. While I struggled with consistency, my mental resilience enabled me to persevere. Coming from a competitive culture where high performance is expected,notachievingmybestaffectedmyinnerperfectionist, which I recognize as a challenge to overcome in the future. Reflecting on this, I would add a new core value: the ability to move away from the notion of a “perfect project” and view each one as an opportunity for learning and experimentation.
Additionally, I aim to cultivate a mindset that allows me to be more compassionate toward myself during difficult times.
The Process
Journey
Continuing from the previous quarter, I began this one with enthusiasm, expecting smaller-scale design to be comparatively easier given my architectural background. However, I quickly realized that even at smaller scales, urban design is a complex process that underscores the importance of cross-scalar thinking. This quarter also highlighted the critical role of effective communication and presentation in conveying ideas clearly—reinforcing that even the best designs are ineffective if not well communicated.
Course Structure and Approach
This quarter’s fast-paced structure was initially overwhelming. The first month of SUET brought a substantial influx of information and rapid production demands, making it challenging to absorb everything and align it with my design process. However, following SUET, the design phase felt more liberating, despite requiring quick progress and development. This course structure has provided me with a range of valuable learning experiences, both personal and professional. It has pushed me to adapt, grow, and refine my approach to balancing project demands with creative freedom.
Theory
and Design Lectures
The theory lectures from SUET were immensely valuable, providing a comprehensive theoretical understanding of various urban systems. I particularly appreciated the lectures delivered by practitioners, as they shared their professional experiences, design ideologies, and the challenges they encountered, along with the strategies they employed to address them in real-world contexts.
Mentorship and Presentations
Working with two practicing professionals this quarter has been an invaluable experience. I greatly appreciated the distinct design approaches of my two mentors. Having interacted more frequently with Heleen, she became more familiar with my design process and the challenges I faced, consistently encouraging me to reach my full potential. Michal’s feedback on my design outputs and his support to my thought process boosted my self-confidence. Final presentations to me was a moment of design and communication inspiration seeing the amazing work and distinct modes of communications from all my groupmates.
Method Labs and Tools
I found methods such as critical mapping with GIS, social sciences, design evaluation, and ENVI-met to be essential to the design process, effectively complementing the course structure. Evaluating design in terms of ecological and social impact was a new experience for me, and it added significant value by grounding the design process in practical, real-world considerations.
Through this journey, I’ve learned that growth comes from embracing challenges, letting go of perfection, and staying open to learning. Each step—whether small or big—shapes not only my work but also who I am as an urbanist, reminding me that progress is found in the process.
