Projects undertaken at the Hull School of Architecture, UK 1997/2002

2000/01: Urban Design, Business Innovation Park, Hull, England.

This project was undertaken as an advanced Specialist Diploma in Urban Design, as part of my Bachelor of Architecture Masters Degree. This postgraduate diploma in Urban Design was achieved as a separate qualification to the Masters programme.

Goods and services flow in new ways in an electronically networked and mediated world, one in which the traditional generators of wealth – land, labor, and capital – are joined and sometimes transcended by fast-flowing information. More flexible forms of production, marketing, and distribution emerge, eventually eliminating many traditional constraints on location of commerce and industry and enabling formation of new spatial patterns (William J. Mitchell).

Although new technology, in the context of the Internet as a communications medium, can provide instantaneous interaction, which is irrelevant of physical location, I believe it does not replicate and foster the close proximity of communication that is advantageous within the realm of the workplace. And so, this building complex will have a design based rationale based on social spaces that promote an environment of close business relationships.
