URBAN REGENERATION

01

INCOMPLETE PROJECT

Project type: Urban Planning for design concept

Location:

Regeneration city for the elderly Understanding the variation of the city together with the population movement Bexhill, United Kingdom

This project was derived from the word “incomplete�, by finding an incomplete building (a project which had become disused or never finished) to be analyzed with reference to the context of the city in order to find potential opportunities for future development.

De La Warr Pavilion, case study site, address at Bexhill-on-Sea, East Sussex TN40 1DP (south east of UK). It stands by the sea side of the Bexhill town centre. This gigantic entertainment building built in 1935 for the Bexhill-on-sea town development plan by 9th Earl De La Warr(mayor of Bexhill 1933-1935).

The pavilion was meant to be a new landmark.

By the existing of the building has marked the town on the map. The pavilion has completed the town up as to be a luxury seaside resort town. Many activities had been launched inside. This gigantic facility has already full-fill the town. Unfortunately, the world war has thorn the town out in 1939. People moved out. Hotels were closed. Schools were evacuated. At last it turns the town to an elderly residential seaside town. The pavilion itself has turned to be a heart of activity for the old. But to spur the economic for the town the pavilion was regenerated to survive as an art culture gallery in 1999. The change has made a silence impact to the town.

Complete

Incomplete Comparing concept for space using between past and present

The main objective of this thesis was to develop and argue for a design project through historical research and writing. Both writing and design have analysed the solution based on the current situation and also with the future predictable circumstance. The main argument of this thesis is hence the direct relation of analysis to a proposition: any change of urban facility also has to bear in mind the history and the impact of the social well-being. The urban planner or designer needs to understand the circumstance in each situation clearly as to stand in the right position. In somehow, it is research and the investment in ‘knowledge’ and its documentation that might provide the planner and his /her collaborators with the necessary tools of decision-making.

Estimation From the earlier issue the problem concerning the incomplete of the regeneration was the change of the De La Warr Pavilion use. Hence, most of the residential were lacking of the space to do the activity as the pavilion was meant to be a public facility for the town at first place.

The risen up of the elderly has produced a distribution of the elderly in many areas across England, especially south east of the country as the number of the elderly has risen up from 26 % from 1980 to 34 % in mid 2009 of all the elderly population number.

As the case study site, Bexhill population has changed as the immigration trend was spread to the south east of England. The elderly population dramatically change by the year 1970-1990 and increase over 45 percent of all the population number.

The analyses of the density show how the town movement as the elderly has emerged after the year 1970.

Circulation analysis

Middle age

Then to sympathize how the circulation in town were made, overlapping all the circulation was use to show which area were most used. To construct clearly, separate each group by the age will display how each age circulate clearly.

Spatial analysis The suitable site As the solution the link in which this study has concern to improve the use of the facility has been found. Analyze the main public facility around the link by the criteria identified as vital were: availability, financial viability, impact, profile and quality, unique selling point, attraction, health, grouping community, fit with the De La Warr Pavilion.

Having applied these first criteria, 6 sites were asses in detail: Site 1: Sainsbury’s – site size 7,067 m² Site 2: De La Warr pavilion– site size 1,218 m² Site 3: Town hall – site size 3,589 m² Site 4: The De La Warr pavilion parking space- site size 5,975 m² Site 5: Bexhill Senior Citizens Club – site size 950 m² Site 6: Bexhill community health centre clubsite size 985 m² The most suitable options were concluded to be the sea front and Sainsbury site. The connection between both sites and other sites were not connecting with each other enough.

The Sainsbury site was identified as an important development area to draw visitors through the town.

The sea front is a high profile space that could be available in the short term. It offers significant scope for business, education, and social and leisure developments.

To improve the transport and the linkage will increase the latency of the town.

Regeneration City for the Elderly Bexhill on Sea, East Sussex TN 40 Understanding the change of the city together with the population movement

Design portfolio Incomplete city for all In the early stages of the design approach, the conclusion from the spatial analysis has analysed the approach link which will stimulate the relation and the activity for the town.

As it has been concern by far the problem of the space is about the space relation also with facility space need. And from that reason, I began developing a visual theory of an inside out to strengthen the centre area.

While creating more facility space will be allow to put in the pedestrian area, strengthen the commercial in town centre, connecting each part of the town with easier connection, creating sense of the seaside town by visionary; using the advantage of the urban geography as this town has the sea combining with the mountain slope. To create more vision of the seaside will also be a part of the design. Although the concept is criticised as surreal, it remains as contemporary theory of a universal design balancing between all age of people to be able to use the space.

Proposal Design Concept

present public area

extend the area and use only the public transport

if we can extend all should b the best but its too hard to shut all the public transport

if we can create more public space by putting it up

The inside out concept: From the study the inside area of the town was not use enough as people try to walk pass to get through as pass the town centre. Create the acitvity by the link between the passing area will generate more use in the town centre.

moreover creating the link will extend not just the space but also create more view and easier link of for the north of the town and the town centre

Regeneration City for the Elderly Bexhill on Sea, East Sussex TN 40 Understanding the change of the city together with the population movement

Design portfolio Incomplete city for all To complete the design task, improving public space and strengthen the pedestrian from the residential area to the seaside is required.

The most suitable options were concluded as the connection from sea front and the railway station. The connection between both sites and other sites need to connect with each other. Therefore, putting more public facility in the space will persuade and allow the people to use the space more. The seaside walkway towards the pavilion is also the public space which needed be concern as to support the user including the wheelchair access. Including the high street analyze the space for public activity still lack. As the proposal concept explain the idea to extend the pedestrian to create more facility space including strengthen the access ability for the shops in the street.

Design portfolio Incomplete city for all As a result the design brings the sense of the seaside town back to live. Moreover, the space problem has been solved. The town centre has been reborn. As a part from this the second proposal was influenced by the knowledge gained through my site interventions and was an attempt to develop a concept of a seaside city. The outcome was a model of inserted landscape integrated with the inside out concept .Bringing different centre areas along the seaside combine with the design link concept. As a result the seaside town has now generated the seaside panorama perspective. I used the advantage of the urban geography, the slope of the mountain with the perspective of the sea as a design concept.

The concept of the panorama link was influenced by the concept of creating more facility space and the recent methodologies of creating the sense of the town centre. From this point the concerning of the facility space needed for the elderly has been found. The design has generated a public space which can be served all the age user in which also including the concept to create the identity of the seaside city along with the De La Warr pavilion.

Group Project Master plan analysis Understanding the movement of the town Delhi, India

The population of New Delhi is expected to rise to 40% by 2021. The total density of Delhi is 9340 per sq km.

The up rise in the population of New Delhi is mainly due to the migration of people to the capital in search of better living standard.

After Mumbai, Tokyo, and Japan, Delhi is expected to become the third largest aggregation in the globe by the year 2015. the population of New Delhi together with Delhi as a whole has ascended to 46.3% in 1991-2001.

The people living below the poverty line accounted to 8.23% of the total population in 1999-2000 and recorded the highest per- centage of crime report in India.

“Delhi, being a low-density sprawl of even distribution, cannot support an economical mass transport system.

Because of its evenly-spread mesh land use, it’s best for Delhi’s people to be individually mobile.”,Charles Correa, 1980 In conclusion this study has shown that Delhi is predicted to continue its growth to be inexpediently more dense in the next decade. Serious efforts, including a number of transport infrastructure projects, under way to encourage usage of public transport in the city.

Other than the general public is benefited by its safe and efficient services. Visible changes due to the Metro system can already be seen all over, huge rise in prices of properties along the Metro line, shifting of multinational companies offices to new suburb or satellite cities. In the long run, the system is going to integrate the capital to its satellite towns by saving public travelling time to those areas. The city is defi- nitely going to be re-shaped.
