Urban Renewal
A genuine understanding of the range of factors at play in dynamic urban environments is key to shaping thriving, sustainable urban communities where linkages, land use mix, transport and infrastructure can successfully come together.
With unique experience in the planning and design of complex urban renewal projects, Urbanista has a proven track record in ground-breaking work for the renewal of inner city social housing areas in Glebe, Waterloo and Dacey Gardens in NSW. More recently planning and design work for the renewal of Redfern and Waterloo communities and other inner Sydney renewal projects have been key projects. Urbanista offers:
- Experience in the planning, design and management of complex urban renewal projects
- Multi-disciplinary team delivers quality urban design and planning based on proven principles
Together with urban design and planning expertise, our critical competencies in architecture, feasibility assessment, affordable housing policy and provision, community engagement, systems modelling and mapping and graphic presentation, ensure an integrated, buildable outcome.
We understand that the key to the success of any urban renewal project is that it:
- responds to the needs of clients and stakeholders;
- takes an integrated approach to design, building on activity linkages and centres;
- enhances natural attributes and harnesses opportunities;
- integrates with surrounding built-form to encourage vibrant mixed-use communities;
- provides for a quality public domain and usable attractive open space with appropriate facilities
Our focus is on:
- Working with and valuing local community
- Enhancing opportunities to achieve liveable, successful and sustainable communities
- Creating a quality public domain with improved access to services and jobs
- Incorporating market analysis and advice early, with on-going assessment and monitoring, to ensure feasibility of urban planning and design outcomes
