Creating a stronger connecting between the current food spaces by: - Pedestrianising the road with a grassland - Utilising abandoned building for education centres and community farming. Linked to the Food Hub is an education centre sharing information on edible insects and Dudley’s biodiversity. Also offers insect cooking lessons to the local community and schools. Immersed within the grassland is areas where existing buildings can extend out onto the street to create a stronger bond with new sustainable environment. Redesigning the Market Place with more levels of outdoor seating to create a new experience and environment of eating food on the High Street. Gardening and insect farming spaces integrated within the buildings. By bringing all the food production onto the High Street will help reduce food waste and also offer fresh produce to the locals. - Sita Patel Food Hub 0.png
New use for cars — As part of pedestrianisation we would like to suggest a memorial of sorts to cars. The feature would sit in the middle of the High Street and would consist of an old out-of-use car, being used as a planter and being filled with plants. This gesture symbolises the movement of the High Street’s priorities shifting from the automobile to plants, people and food. - 1_5qV59l-Z2_O-_1DJy2oNgw.png
