SEOULLO Skygarden / MVRDV. SEOULLO Skygarden / MVRDV Text description provided by the architects.
MVRDV’s design offers a living dictionary of the natural heritage of South Korea to the city centre of Seoul. It connects the city dwellers with the nature, offering the users the opportunity of experiencing the amazing views to the Historical Seoul Station and Namdaemun Gate. Triumfalnaya Square / Buromoscow. CivicWise. Rendering to Reality: MVRDV’s Seoul Skygarden Is New York’s High Line With an Asian Twist. MVRDV has transformed one of Seoul’s underutilized highways into a green walkway for the city — a feat many municipalities are attempting these days but which only a few have been successful at so far.
Like New York’s High Line, the Seoullo 7017 Skygarden is a repurposed piece of infrastructure that cuts through the inner city, serving as a catalyst for a greener and more walkable quarter of the South Korean capital. The project was pieced together on top of an abandoned 16-meter-high [52 feet] steel and concrete overpass built in 1970. MVRDV won a competition back in 2015 to bring its creation to life: a design featuring an elaborate “plant village” that would become an “urban nursery” and grow new trees for the surrounding central station district. The project’s apt name, “Seoullo,” is the Korean word for “toward Seoul” or “Seoul Street,” while 7017 refers to the year in which the highway was built and subsequently reimagined as an urban greenway.

We have very few cities in the US where you can find streets like this. For the most part what you see is streets that have been designed with the car in mind—at a large scale for a fast speed. Bostanlı Footbridge & Sunset Lounge / steb. Bostanlı Footbridge & Sunset Lounge / steb From the architect.
Bostanlı Footbridge and Bostanlı Sunset Lounge have been designed by Studio Evren Başbuğ Architects as part of the 'Karşıkıyı' concept created for 'İzmirSea' coastal regeneration project. These two architectural interventions that are positioned in close proximity and in reference to each other, have generated a new, integrated coastal attraction together, where Bostanlı Creek flows into the bay, on a very special and unique spot due to the geometric form of the coastline, and the urban memory possessed.
The site has become one of the favorite public attraction points in Karşıyaka, İzmir and has been embraced and visited by the residents from all around the city since the opening in July 2016. In alignment with the masterplan decisions of 'Karşıkıyı' concept, 'Bostanlı Footbridge', was proposed to connect two sides of Bostanlı Creek and thus to complete one of the missing pieces of the continuous coastal promenade.

"The Arrogance of Space": Mapping The Unfair Distribution of Public Space at Urban Intersections. "The Arrogance of Space": Mapping The Unfair Distribution of Public Space at Urban Intersections Unequal distribution of public space when it comes to pedestrians, cyclists and people driving cars is an issue that urban mobility specialist Mikael Colville-Andersen calls "The Arrogance of Space.
" The urban planner and founder of Copenhagenize believe that this term can be applied to streets that are dominated by traffic engineers from last century where streets were made primarily for cars. To illustrate his position, Mikael analyzed the amount of space allocated to each of these groups, in addition to "dead space” and space for buildings, in the streets of Calgary, Paris, and Tokyo by comparing each sector using different colors. Take a look at the findings below. Paris Looking down at the intersection of Quai Branly and Pont d'Iéna in Paris from above, we see the spaces for pedestrians, cyclists, and cars.

Espacios públicos amables para una ciudad informal, la experiencia de "Barrio Mío" en Lima. La ciudad de Lima, con 9 millones de habitantes, se compone en un 70% de construcciones informales, levantadas a través de la autogestión de las comunidades y sus futuros habitantes. En una ciudad fragmentada -entre invasiones y barriadas-, se hace urgente generar lazos entre el estado, el sector privado y la sociedad civil, para reconstruir el escaso espacio público existente y llevar la arquitectura a aquellas zonas que lo requieran. Este es el desafío del Programa Barrio Mío de la Municipalidad de Lima, asesorando técnicamente a los vecinos organizados en zonas de laderas, para generar proyectos de recuperación y mejora de espacios públicos dentro de un sistema urbano integral.

WORKac‘s design for a 1-kilometer section of Hua Qiang Bei Road in Shenzhen was awarded first prize.
The design responds to the area’s growing commercial character which has unfortunately created traffic problems. For the proposal, the road becomes a series of “strategic interventions” where “five iconic lanterns”, (twisting bands of required program) create unique, visible destinations through a process of “urban acupuncture”. More images and more about the design after the break.
The lanterns’ size makes them visible across the street, and they also provide shade during the day and glow with activity during the night. Each lantern contains special destination public programs such as an electronics museum, an urban information hub or a “figure eight” observation pavilion. Underground, new connective spaces provide public amenities and provide connections across the street and between four newly created metro lines.
