transit-oriented melbourne.

 

Through the exploration of the walkability from different transits station and the public transportation networks in Melbourne CBD, the research topic tend to redefine the Hoddle grid concentration – categorize the blocks into different nodes of clusters:It is necessary to depict and rearrange the nodes into a new OZP for Melbourne’s future development. Including listing the growth and decline and the scale of programmes – the absolute extreme values of the functions – the maxima and minima into different scenarios.There are different DNA clusters inside the city,the Hoddle Grid becomes the limits of the connections. The form finding for the urban topology and the building clusters typology will be the focus of this proposal. The aggregation of the buildings connecting together within a certain radius(clusters) in the Hoddle grid are designated to connect to each of the train stations. Different prioritized selection by the most appearing function from the existing programmes will insert to the aggregation algorithm to generate the growth of the clusters.To achieve the vision: Part 1: Grid Growth – Walk path throughout city (x-axis, y-axis).Explode the grid – Stigmergy – new fabric - new topology.Part 2. Programme Arrangement– typology Growth (z-axis). Aggregation – emerging programmes together - typology. The city in the future will have a higher concentration,connections and engagements within the clusters and the new grid lines.
