Our approach – bringing it all together COSTS & CASHFLOW DELIVERY STRATEGY Organisation & Tasks PLACEMAKING Key Influences and Assumptions Optimising development potential Creating places where people what to be Environments for Business Quality of Living Urban Design MASTERPLAN Elements Areas Densities Locations Connections Exemplars Constraints Detailed Design Strategy Sustainability & Accountability Project Definition Re-using brownfield sites Design Components Project Co-ordination Liaison community / city Masteplanning team Transportation PHASING & COST ANALYSIS Liaisons Planning the study

  10. A strucutured approach to Placemaking Components of Quality Character - Richness and uniquenessAppropriate Form - New urban forms Planned Activity - Understanding use of place Connectivity - Linkages and permeability Perception/response - Evolution of use Sustainable structure - Adaptive blocks History and context - Responding to site

  11. Quality of Placemaking: Infrastructure Strategies Interchange – Paradise Street Rail infrastructure – Hong Kong Car Park Strategy – Paradise Street

  12. Quality of Placemaking: Density Built Form 1. Sunlight and Daylight 3. 2. Mix of uses Privacy Amenity

  13. Quality of Placemaking: Disposition,Form and Character of Blocks Sectional Character Block Size 2. 1. 3. 4. Mix

  14. Spatial Connections: Urban Places • quality locations to live, work and invest • new destinations and attractions • easy access to the open air • opportunities for natural links • setting high standards for the future

  15. The less tangible but equally important Placemaking issues Visit a gallery Coffee & Croissant Social drink after work LEISURE • Eating out Sport and exercise Listen to music Lunch with Friends Listen to music Interesting atmosphere Safe and secure Attractive environs BUSINESS & COMMERCE Local amenities Access to transport Social Focus Appropriate space Access to and from public transport A good address RETAIL & RESIDENTIAL Attractive and inviting places and spaces A place to meet History and heritage

  16. Retain and restore the best, take a forensic approach and be prepared to clear the ground and start again, Be innovative with potential land uses, analyse the physical, but use all your senses to assess the possibilities Strengthen links and connections with the environs, relate to the neighbourhood BUT ABOVE ALL CREATE A NEW HEART! Realise the potential of underused assets- the river? Understanding the elements – condition and character

  17. The site is rich with possibilities but the obvious may not be the best approach. It is appropriate to replace one industrial use with another in the same location or premises? Are the buildings suitable for commercial use in the 21st C? If not what other uses can they be utilised for? Is there a demand for small scale ‘incubator / nursery space? BRNO has many students, could this be a new home for some of them? What will happen to the riverside – don’t turn your back on it a waterside location adds great value to any development
