Description

    Urban Design and Growth Strategy

     

  • The residential neighbourhood is designed for organic growth and slow development, integrating new residential typologies into an existing vernacular countryside settlement.
  • The plan ensures that clusters of 30-250 homes are connected by a network of roads, avenues, and paths, allowing for gradual growth and flexibility in development.
  •  

    Preservation of Agrarian Landscape

     

  • The design prioritizes the maintenance of the agrarian landscape, with various cluster densities to accommodate new development while allowing existing pastoral land to remain cultivated.
  • Newly reclaimed land will feature more adaptable housing typologies, whereas older, existing tracts will have minimal development, retaining the rural character of the area.
  •  

    Residential Typologies

     

  • Three main residential typologies are introduced:
  • Farmyard typology: Small clusters of 2-8 homes around shared yards.
  • Courtyard typology: Homes arranged around a central courtyard with winding streets.
  • Monastery-type: Large enclaves of up to 150 homes with a shared garden, reminiscent of local monastery layouts.
  •  

    Sustainability and Landscape Integration

     

  • The plan retains significant poplar vegetation and uses rows of trees to demarcate clusters, preserving the natural landscape and defining residential areas.
  • A rainwater management system incorporating bioswales and existing ditches will handle stormwater onsite, supporting environmental sustainability.
  •  

    Recreational Spaces

     

  • Recreational spaces are integrated into the greenery, with parks and a fitness trail open to the public.
  •  

    Accessibility and Connectivity

     

  • Located close to a town with access to public transport.
