MULTIGON SITE
Urban Design
Midtown Development, Airdrie (Alberta)
An urban design proposal for a 90 acres site envisioned for a pedestrian friendly urban fabric system including 180,000 sq.ft. of commercial / offices, 127 single family lots, 212 townhouses, 615 condominiums, an elementary school and close to 5 acres of open spaces, parks and trails. The overall design was based on providing diversity in housing types and prices as well as encouraging sustainability building practices.
Bavars New Town, Ghazvin (Iran)
A master plan designed for 200 acres of relatively flat site next to a major highway. Development included 1,500 dwellings, schools, shops, restaurants, administrative offices, town hall, play areas and a mini transit system. Careful study conducted towards realizing the climatic, physical and economical constraints.
Neighbourhood Revitalization, Mahabad (Iran)
A new business / residential community was designed to accommodate affordable housing and respond to the anticipated growth of the city. A thorough physical site analysis was undertaken to design a road network that utilizes the maximum use of land on a very steep site. The master plan offered 15,000 square meters of low cost housing, 20,000 square meters of market housing, neighbourhood business center, school / gymnasium, town meeting centre and library.
Montana, Surrey
A 118 unit townhouse and 15 single family development comprised of 22 separate buildings blocks with large open spaces and landscape area in the center of the site. An elementary school and playground is located to the west of the development. The site is close to shopping facilities, a recreational centre and rail commuter routes.
Zargan Newtown, Ahwaz (Iran)
A new town with a population 40,200 containing 2,500 dwelling units on a 96 acre site in Southern Iran. The town’s urban network consisted of eight neighbourhood centers. Public service facilities, government offices, recreational facilities, retail and other amenities and schools were located in the seven surrounding neighbourhood centers. The overall planning concept was based on creating functional, sustainable and affordable accommodation to respond to the rapid growth of the region.
Revitalization of old Neighbourhood, Langley
Opportunity arose to design three separate ground oriented townhouse developments in an area designated as a medium density residential district. This pedestrian oriented development was a preferred option to a traditional approach of maximizing the gross floor area by introducing apartment complexes with no respect to the public realm treatment.
