PRODUCTIVE LANDSCAPE To create a safe family friendly pedestrianised space on Dudley's high street. By changing up the landscape and introducing micro ecosystem on the high street we aim to improve the health and well-being for the planet as well as the people of Dudley. - 1_mkCAvjf8W9Ou3S7RRn6QEQ.png
Street scale patchwork Investigating Facade Damage will highlight where the repair needs to be undertaken. It is creating an irregular pattern of repair that evolves. Only intervene when necessary; this proposal will not ‘repair what does not need fixing’ as it appreciates there could be a negative effect on an already declining high street. Repairs will be constructed with the materials grown on the street as part of the Macro-scale intervention. - Ryan Cooksey Street Scale Patchwork 1.png
These are stepping stones that we wanted to achieve, with a scale of intervention, starting with small changes that could still have a big impact e.g. street furniture. At the other end of the scale is topography, where larger adaptations can be made for what we want to achieve. - 1_aCYWhkx_P64AMPeLQJIBqw.png
By using the courtyard space as allotments, it will create a social hub for the local people and connect it to local businesses and stores. - 1_Vpf99A9HuEdBxMXJ0etfRw.png
High Street Development The following images represent the high street development over the next 10 years. Green Corridor The hard standing throughout the high street is quickly converting a field of seeding of wild grasses and wildflowers, in the mix is also a high density of tree saplings. These will then grow to become the high streets Miyawaki forest and the centre point of Dudley’s green corridor. Vertical Farming Initially one vertical farm would appear on the high street and as the idea of urban farming becomes more widely accepted more and more buildings will either be converted, extended or built as new farms. Apartment Conversion As the population increases and more people are predicted to live in built up towns and cities, apartment blocks will pop up in new environments. As for the high street this will become a desired place to live as there are already most common amenities ready to use. As more blocks are created they themselves will become semi self sustaining. - Matthew Hewitt Green Corridor.png
