1.1 OUR NEW PROTOCOL
▸ http://www.urbandesign.gov.au/
▸ It is concerned with the arrangement,
appearance and function of our suburbs, towns
and cities.
▸ It is both a process and an outcome of creating
localities in which people live, engage with each
other, and the physical place around them.
▸ It involves many different disciplines.
▸ It operates from the macro to the micro scale.
▸ It influences economics, the physical scale and
the social and cultural nature of a locality
▸ It is a long-term process that continues to evolve
over time.
Hibberson St, Gungahlin, Canberra, ACT, AUS
1.1 PIA URBAN DESIGN CHAPTER
“Urban design aims at the creation of
useful, attractive, safe, environmentally
sustainable, economically successful and
socially equitable places.
Good urban design pursues local identity
and sense of place, cultural
responsiveness and purposeful
environmental innovation.
It achieves a high level of quality, comfort,
safety, equity, beauty and cohesion in the
overall, physical outcome of all the
development, planning, engineering,
architectural and landscape design
decisions that contribute to urban change.”
Caroline Springs Boulevard, Caroline Springs, Melbourne, VIC, AUS
▸ “Urban Design has emerged as an area of design
practice shared between, and at the nexus of, the
professions of Landscape Architecture, Planning and
Architecture and is concerned with the visioning and
implementation of sustainable urban public spaces and
settlements.” http://www.aila.org.au/urbandesign/

1.2 RANGE OF PUBLIC SPACE
NEW CITY LIFE Jan Gehl
▸ Urban stroll ways: boulevards, avenues, streets
▸ Main city space: squares, frame events
▸ Local city space: playing and staying
▸ Ceremonial city: seats of power, celebrations
▸ Deserted city space: large surfaces few activities
▸ Transport hubs: dominated by people in transit
▸ Green city spaces: variety of uses

▸ Temporary city space
▸ Aquatic city space
▸ Waterfront city space: access to views and water; and
▸ City space for play and sport: permanent specialised equipment
Subiaco, Perth, WA, AUS
1.2 QUALITY PUBLIC SPACE
▸ Urban designers believe that the arrangement and the qualities of the public
space affects the way people react, interact, behave and feel.
▸ William H Whyte : It is difficult to design a space that will not attract people.
What is remarkable is how often this has been accomplished .

1.3 URBAN DESIGN
▸ Activity + end result
▸ Verb – the process of urban design
▸ Noun – the quality of the place
1.5 URBAN DESIGNERS
▸ They cannot be an
authority in all these areas
▸ They need to be experts
in integrating information
and ideas
▸ From their team, client,
stakeholders and the
community
▸ Critically they need to see
the big picture

1.6 URBAN DESIGN AND FORM
▸ Built form influences our
use and appreciation of place
▸ Urban designers
influence place through -
▸ buildings (location, shape and size)
▸ structures and;
▸ quality of spaces.
Wellard – Perth, WA

The hierarchy of form
Urban Initiatives 2003
1.7 SENSE OF PLACE
“Urban design is not just about physical form, but lived experience
as well. It has a social and psychological dimension. At its best,
urban design is about feeling at home in the world: creating a
sense of continuity and authenticity.” (Buchanan, 2009)
Valley Fiesta - Brisbane
http://www.mapcreative.com.au/images/portfolio/valley-fiesta-2007.gif
1.7 SENSE OF PLACE
▸ Broader meaning > built form
▸ Negative connotation of space?
▸ Our favourite part of the city is a
place
▸ Place may have a purpose,
blurry edges, identified by
name...
▸ A personal connection with
people
▸ Engwicht Secret 1 - make
people feel at home
▸ “Place is a feeling not a location”
Given Tce, Paddington, Brisbane, QLD, AUS
1.7 SENSE OF PLACE
▸ Soul of the place –
attachment and
belonging
▸ Built environment
+++ features, events,
people and activities
▸ Social Fabric
▸ Emerging attributes:
opportunity, identity,
innovation, creativity,
authenticity – more
powerful attractors
1.7 SENSE OF PLACE
▸ Characteristics of
successful
and highly valued
places
(Morrison Institute):
▸ quality natural
environment
▸ innovation and cultural
capacity
▸ distinctive amenities
▸ street life, “hipness”,
tolerance
▸ choice and diversity
▸ accessibility.
Queensberry Street, Melbourne, VIC, AUS
1.8 OUR ROLE?
▸ Urban design – not one
person or profession
▸ Fundamentally multi-
disciplinary and
collaborative
▸ Planning – traditionally the
right mix of uses in the
right location...
▸ Successful places depend
on physical form of
development as well
▸ Plus the social fabric (soft
infrastructure)
▸ No accreditation for urban
design in Australia - AILA
City Square, Melbourne, VIC, AUS
1.8 URBAN DESIGN LEADERSHIP?
▸ Planners – big picture thinkers with
broad training, project management
skills and collaborative mind set...
broad scale master planning
▸ Architects – much more than
buildings and design, offer
solutions. Increasingly focussed on
place, not just the building... form in
urban design
▸ Landscape Architects – strong site
analysis and design skills...
designing the space into place
▸ And others….
▸ Good urban designers often have
more than one qualification

Empathy Map - Logan City Council Course Oct 2012
Participants not only identified the following ideas,
they volunteered to investigate implementation
within Council.
Corporate
1.Urban design protocol 'creating better places' - sign up or
adoption.
2.Location and design of council buildings and facilities to
deliver good urban design outcomes - leading by example -
Additional information - procurement.
3.Consider adopting Place Principles into the Corporate Plan,
urban manners etc.
4.Consider where placemaking sits within the organisation –
across the silos?

Technical
5.Complete streets integration.
6.Flexible planning scheme making changes over time rather than once every five years.
7.Location of car parks to the rear or underneath buildings.
8.Urban design audit incorporated into the development assessment process.
9.Stepping back from the detail to focus on the outcomes rather than the process - getting in early to the
design process.
10.Review development which ticks the boxes but does not deliver good places.
11.Change the front fence policy in the building code.
12.Ask developers for design changes to make places more livable but currently restricted by the process.
13.Constructive feedback to industry in appropriate ways.
14.Who benefits from streets: pedestrians v cars reclaiming the space for pedestrians - Radio Interview -
Enrique Penalosa.
15.Having processes in place to change the rules based on feedback from technical staff.
ITS WHAT WE DO ‘DAY TO DAY’ THAT COUNTS
Sydney Course, Canada Bay, Sydney, NSW, AUS
Systems
16.Internal urban design champions – not necessarily
a senior person - Additional information -
procurement.
17.Use 242s as an opportunity to trial new planning.
18.Urban design panel to comment on significant
developments or local area plans.
Place Managers
19.Place managers for key sites - Place Manage.
20.Trialling/prototyping in regards to flexible spaces -
Six opportunities to improve our places through
prototyping .
ITS WHAT WE DO ‘DAY TO DAY’ THAT COUNTS
Place Proposals developed during Training Course
People
21.Conversations over the phone or in person rather than through formal legislative processes.
22.Consistent language across the organisation - Development Assessment or Place Enabling?

24.Involve as many voices in the decision making process - Place Roles .
25.Speak to the users and not just the community - Place User.
26.Recognise that consensus is not always the key to being visionary eg the Sydney Opera House - "New
visions do not start with majority support".
Across all categories
27.Investigate alternatives within transport.
28.transport planning as a leader for placemaking being part of the solution rather than part of the problem -
Transforming NYC streets into places.

Notes de l'éditeur

  1. The new library with a cafe on the corner and learning facilities upstairs is a great example of the public sector delivering good urban design with public buildings and facilitating a new urban centre!
  2. Note how the buildings in Salamanca Place enclose the space? The markets (soft infrastructure) create wonderful place based experiences - "the icing on the cake".
  3. Photo of my favourite oz place what's yours? Great view, gritty place (functioning rear lane with rubbish bins and cobblestones). Doesn't meet classic urban design criteria - no active edges, although the graffiti helps as does Movida restaurant.
  4. Every city seems to need markets (and laneways)!
  5. The Nolli plan (in this instance Rome) is a useful urban design tool. It shows buildings in black and the spaces in between in white. Generally the more complex the pattern the more interesting the place. Think of the pattern of your nearest big box shopping centre - box in black surrounded by hectares of white parking! What would the Nolli plan be of your favourite place?
  6. A simpler definition of urban design (thanks to participant feedback!). Places like Federation Square are designed with one or more functions in mind.
  7. The new library with a cafe on the corner and learning facilities upstairs is a great example of the public sector delivering good urban design with public buildings and facilitating a new urban centre!
  8. Another short planning definition! It is comprehensive though – covers a lot of the points. Oatlands a redevelopment of an old state school in Sydney by Landcom which used rear lanes to get garages at the back of houses (and apartments) to improve the street. Designed by one of our interviewees - Clive Alcock.

  15. It's all about the quality of the public space - the area between the buildings (usually in public ownership) which is quickly forgotten. Lindy + Allan's house in my street contributes to the street by defining the transition from public to private space. It features an obvious front gate and low fence, front door leading to the veranda (a place for strangers out of the rain), front room is semi public (sitting room not a bedroom). Garage to the side.

  17. Suburban fringe residential development by Mirvac (through Landcom) which is closer to the street, two stories and not dominated by garages. Shame about the bollards?
  18. It does this by placing the garages at the rear of the house. A little parsley on the pig though as the rest of the estate utilises standard garages at the front which impact on the street. (WA is leading the charge in good suburban (and inner city) development).
  19. A good introduction to urban design – which hasn’t dated. Beautiful hand drawn illustrations of European cities by the author.
  20. An easy book to read (do yourself a favour and borrow it from the library!) which confirms that cities need public places with different functions. Not just deserted city spaces!
  21. It's all about quality public space - which can affect the way people feel. A drawing of an apartment building which not only responds to the climate... but also the street! “We shape our buildings; thereafter they shape us”. Winston Churchill

  23. Urban design is an activity and an end result. The linear park in KGUV looked good on plan, but may be missing a clear function. Could be a really good playground or skate park, or performance space?
  24. According to Chris Melsom (HASSELL Perth) a key characteristic of urban designers is emotional intelligence. Wikipedia says that there are 2 characteristics of EI: Self-awareness – the ability to read one's emotions and recognize their impact while using gut feelings to guide decisions. Self-management – involves controlling one's emotions and impulses and adapting to changing circumstances. Social awareness – the ability to sense, understand, and react to others' emotions while comprehending social networks. Relationship management – the ability to inspire, influence, and develop others while managing conflict. Image is a scale model of Shanghai in the Town Planning museum in a prominent location the cities central square.
  25. Urban design relies on built form at different scales. The plan of Wellard on the southern Perth railway line should deliver good urban design based on its structure and scale.
  26. Great places benefit from a ‘sense of place’...
  27. which is broader than built form. Places tend to be our favourite parts of the city - whereas spaces tend to be dead or unsafe? A lookout along Latrobe Tce in Paddington, Brisbane – one of my favourite places (has anyone seen the TV remote?).
  28. Often social fabric (soft infrastructure) is critical to placemaking - the events, festivals etc The arrow marks the couch!
  29. The Morrison Institute have built on the work of Richard Florida and others to identify the qualities of cites (and their regions) which attract knowledge based workers (like us). Percentage of gay and lesbian people in a city is an indicator of the populations tolerance. Cities are know competing with each other to deliver these outcomes.
  30. So because urban design is multidisciplinary planners can not only contribute they can also lead the process. Particularly when we think creatively and work in 3 dimensions. Melbourne city square – controversially created in the 1960s with the demolition of heritage buildings and opened in 1980 by QEII. It was redeveloped from1997 to 2000 with part of the site sold for a hotel.
  31. "Andrew's guide to design leadership in urban design projects." Most projects as need a facilitator to support the design lead. Planners tend to make good project facilitators. Fringe residential development by Australand which is creating a centre through two storey town houses overlooking a new park. Garages at the rear help. This is a good way of making a centre in the suburbs without retail uses. It need not rely on high quality landscaping either.
  32. Pathways @ Northlakes (yellow circle) - opposite the new Westfield shopping centre (blue) which engages with the street. The old Pine Rivers Shire Council worked hard to deliver urban outcomes in this new Centre.
  33. When I was at HASSELL I led a team in a 2 day design workshop with public stakeholders to plan a new library, senior school and recreation centre with a main street outcome. We also included a laneway, central park and on street carparking.
  34. The new library with a cafe on the corner and learning facilities upstairs is a great example of the public sector delivering good urban design with public buildings and facilitating a new urban centre!
  35. Keep your eye out for Placefocus.com
  36. Have a look at the ‘Built to Last” movie on the internet site and tell me what you think? There are a couple of other movies on this site you might like to view as well. http://www.youtube.com/user/1standMain#p/u/2/VGJt_YXIoJI What do you understand about New Urbanism?
  37. Have a look at the additional info - particularly the 'value of urban design' when you are trying to convince people to spend money. An ordinary apartment building in Byron Bay compensated through a nice cafe/bar which celebrates the corner! What happens at street level is critical.
  38. The cascades in Oatlands is a landscaped pathway designed as a compromise to the existing community who didn't want a street connection. These houses relationship to the street is facilitated by rear garages.
  39. The photo should give you a clue for question 1.2. I am looking for urban space (e.g. not backyards)

  97. Congratulations we are over the hump! We skip section 7 in the presentation and cover it at the end. The next 3 sections are an opportunity to ‘roll our sleeves up and get our hands dirty’. The East Perth Redevelopment Authority (EPRA) showed character to tackle a brownfield site first, and build a new harbour. What an asset for Perth!
  98. A good initiative in Victoria and hopefully a trend for the rest of our valuable places.

  100. Built from local granite in 1858 the Bank of Australasia was committed to the vision for Yackandandah.  A nice example of single storey mixed use - the bank at the front with the managers residence to the side.  A small front garden transitions between public and private space.   This contributes to one of the best and intact main streets in Australia!
  101. Vision California is a more recent example of Calthorpe’s approach to regional planning. http://www.calthorpe.com/files/Vision%20California%20Brochure%20v2.pdf The alternative futures produced in Vision California will not just be a collection of goals, policies, maps, or pictures – they will be quantitatively assessed to show how varying land use and infrastructure investments can meet state goals for reducing greenhouse gas emissions as well as related objectives for open space and farmland preservation, community health, mobility, housing affordability, energy and water use, and more. It is this unique combination of alternatives and the quantification of their impacts that can lead to more informed and strategic decisions about the future of our state. By clearly defining the critical consequences of various growth options, it will enable informed policy decisions to be made about how to shape the California's growth.

  105. Another movie to look forward to! Bill Chandler confirming that good urban design delivers places for users.
  106. This is a new suburb in a ‘new town’ on the edge of Brisbane. Mirvac developed this shopping centre (near a new train station) with two malls running parallel to a high street. This is leading edge for shopping centres in Queensland. I am not sure why they closed the street on a Saturday – no obvious sign of streetworks. I don’t think they were filming a movie? Perhaps to enable the pedestrians to cross between the malls? Although, it seemed to make the space feel a little too quiet? I wonder if this is consistent with the conditions of approval?
  107. A good way to think about design – the physical definition of streets! We don’t build fire stations like this anymore...
