Problem Statement: "Canberra holds little capital Presence and identity, as it lacks connection across all scales"
Direction of task:
· Pick a node individually do a node, and discuss what is focused on at each node
· Negotiate distinctions between them
· Define different purposes and identity
· Same strategies? – How do you create a strategy that forms identity on National scale and can be applied to various cities, areas, towns etc
· Look at all forms of connectivity:
· Truck, Bicycles, recreation and pedestrian
· How is flexibility going to be shown?
· Design a "kit of parts" that can be applied to all Transit Centers or TOD's
· Think of all realms – e.g. residential: student accomodation, affordable accomodation and luxury accomodation
· Link to different modes of transportation
· Depending on the node, each gets assigned different variations -
· Use module design and create types and resource that addresses IDENTITY strategy
· Each TOD to be resolved differently.
· Trains, car-parks, pedestrian grids - Demonstrate the various scales that we are describing & propose solutions at diff scales
· Eg. Bus routes - Zoom in – University by road - Commercial center that ignores university etc
· EG. Pedestrian scale - user scale - town scale
· Identify each mode of transport and characteristics of each zone
· MODULAR – what does each module need? How is it adapted within existing
· Find strengths in what exists – Plans for rail and bus systems and what can be addressed
· Critique what is already there and propose. Does It Fit? – apply same decision making process to different nodes
· Urban design and master planning is needed before the architectural stage – one system that is flexible
· Expansion – investigation in dual purpose systems – road ways become path ways
· Flexible layers at each of the scales
· Use existing infrastructure
