Expertise/Territories

Urban Planning

Streets, blocks and public space decide whether a district is lived in or only driven through. We design what happens between the buildings.

What it covers

Public space
Squares, courtyards and parks people use rather than walk around. How they will be used is worked out before the landscaping.
Streets and mobility
Pedestrians, bicycles, transport and parking in one scheme. Priority is set deliberately — otherwise the car sets it.
Renewal of existing fabric
What to keep, what to replace and how to rehouse people. The decision is weighed on economics and social consequences at once.
Street safety
Design measures that cut accidents and make a street usable by a child and by an older person. The pilot street in Sergeli was built on this principle.
