Land Use/Diversity Sustainability
WALKABILITY
Walkability
● Measure how friendly an area is to walking● Has health, environmental, and economic benefits● Importance in sustainable urban design● Factors of walkability
○ Pedestrian walkway & Overpass○ Traffic and road condition○ Safety○ Land use patterns
Apple Campus, Norman Foster, California
The best way to experience a city is throughWALKING
CONNECTIVITY
Connectivity / Road system
● Hierarchy road system○ Hierarchy - arrangement, big to small
○ Primary (highest number of lanes), Secondary, Tertiary (smallest number of lanes), service road
TRANSPORT
Transport
● Move people from one place to another● Issues = Overflow of personal vehicles
○ Traffic jams○ Insufficient parking lot○ Threat for pedestrians
● Solution = Public Transport○ KTM○ LRT○ Monorail○ Bus○ Taxi
● Sustainable and Healthy Solution○ Create walkable city○ Bicycles
WAYFINDING
Wayfinding
● Guide people through the space○ Signage - Clearly indicate the direction○ Landmarks - As a reference point, something outstanding in the area, e.g Main Place○ E.g shopping malls, school, city, etc
● Important especially in emergency situation, such as in Hospital● Contribute sense of well-being, safety and security
LAND USE / DIVERSITY
● Go to state JUPEM e.g Pulau Pinang for our site
● Buy the map for RM 10.00 ● Requires lot number, address or
landmark of the area
Land Use/Diversity
● Different category of land usage● Jabatan Ukur dan Pemetaan
Malaysia (JUPEM)● E.g of land usage
○ Residential○ Commercial○ Educational○ Industrial○ Institutional○ Etc
Land Usage / Diversity
● Affects the flow of people, economy of business● Example;
○ Industrial area will be full of factory workers○ Commercial area will be less people at night since all shops closed at 10pm○ Tourism area will always full of tourist especially on school holiday season○ Residential area will be more peaceful compares to commercial area
● Affects density
DENSITY
Density
● Variety of measurement○ Residential density - the number of dwelling/housing units in an area○ Population density - the number of human persons in an area○ Employment density - the number of jobs in any given area
● Influenced by the type of buildings and activities in the area
Different street in Melaka
Shibuya Crossing, Japan
High Density
Good or Bad??
PUBLIC SPACE
Public Space
● Open spaces that is accessible by public● From a grand plaza to a green pocket in a neighbourhood● Increase quality of life - social aspects● Focal points or landmark, easy wayfinding● E.g Recreational parks, plaza
Central Park, New York
KLCC Park, Kuala Lumpur
High Line, New York
Superkilen, Copenhagen
Public Swimming pool, Bucharest
SUSTAINABILITY
● Less vehicle, More Walking and Cycling○ Reduce air and noise pollution
● More Green, less Grey○ Vegetation○ Supply fresh oxygen○ Filter polluted air
● Provide healthy lifestyle● Zero-carbon city
○ Renewable source○ No carbon emission from vehicles
● Permeable city○ Water can go through into the soil○ Reduce chances of flooding
Sustainability

Designers shape the city,The city shape the people, Designers shape the people.
