Third Year Urbanism module on larger scale design, focusing on creating pedestrian friendly environments and challenging the existing, vehicle dominated urban landscapes worldwide.

(Case studies 1-3 produced in conjunction with peers Mieneke Jongert & Crystal Cheung)

​

Case Study 1 - New Urban Square: Taking an existing public square in Fuenlabrada, Madrid and re-structuring the area to enhance the social quality and improve the appeal of a forgotten area in the city. Proposal focused on creating different social nodes within the area to cater for all ages and needs, allocated within a cohesive re-structuring of the provided facilities and transport network.

​

Case Study 2 - Pedestrian School Routes: With a municipality incentive to improve the pedestrian itinerary for schoolchildren, a city survey was conducted along two major school routes and a transport network proposal was created - re-allocating and re-defining road types in order to increase appeal, accessibility and safety.

​

Case Study 3 - South N'Gambo Zanzibar: An urban survey and localised proposal for South N'Gambo in Zanzibar, focusing on analysing the existing third-world landscape and identifying key areas of improvement to bring the area up to current standards. Proposal incorporates changes to building typologies, existing provisions, transport networks and sustainable facilities.

​

Case Study 4 - Makuti Re-Design, South N'Gambo: Individual progression from previous C.S.3 to implement design strategies previously developed into a focused area of the city. Proposal leaned especially on the typology strategies to efficiently re-organise the area into residential & mixed use buildings around a significantly more open & verdant public area, with a transport network that has greater focus and appropriation to different users.
