The Project is a collaboration between Politecnico di Milano in Italy and the Tongji University in Shanghai.
In the design, I wanted to preserve the character of Hongkou and to mixed the different types of usages throughout the Master plan. Every few buildings create a Residential Complex, which hosts a public space for its residents and bring the social environment to a more private scale for the reisdents.
These residential complexes also include commercial activities that would attract more livelyhood to the block. The pathways are designed to create an access throughout the site. Moreover there are public social gathering spaces between the buildings, which would create a friendly environment for the residents and the visitors.
Vertical Social Gathering spaces are made by voids in the buildings. This will help to bring the community together and to minimize the distance for social environments for all its residents.
