LIVABLE CITY Livable city is a project that promotes more democratization of the city while providing sustainable, good living experience for different groups of people with urban development space. Through the analysis of the existing Melbourne CBD related data, it focuses on the current urban development issues. The city supports different groups of people with different strengths. At the same time, the city has complex functions while the development logic is gradually dominated by commerce. The project reduces the circulation distance between the elderly and young people, optimizes the elements of urban blocks, and encourages the sharing of architectural spaces and changes their functions based on crowd behavior data to create an urban space that is more suitable for mixed use by different groups of people in the future .

What is the City?

(ΔT) (ΔT)


The city is the ultimate carrier of modern life, and therefore attracts countless young people to live in the CBD. Today’s cities are full of vitality, businesses and young people, but people always get old. At this stage, cities seem to be unfavorable by the elderly and many other kinds of groups. There are many reasons, such as the lack of medical facilities, too many high-rise buildings, and the elderly. The entertainment life is not convenient. My research is based on data to overcome these difficulties and create better cities.

Combined with the characteristics of the above-mentioned different groups, and combined with the use of different urban spaces by people in the previous 24 hours. The space has been divided into public space and private space. We can find that when the peak use of different public space meets the trough, it means that this part of space can be shared or provide multiple services at the same time.

Based on the components that have been designed and the corresponding functions required by different groups within 24 hours, we can merge related components into the same box according to the functions. At the same time, there are boxes with common needs among these blocks, which are used as mixed use space, so that different groups can communicate here.
