- 5. 5 ROYALS BUSINESS PARK- ROYAL ALBERT DOCK, LONDON Landscape Character Assessment The tool that is used to help us to understand, and articulate, the character of the landscape. It helps us identify the features that give a locality its 'sense of place' and pinpoints what makes it different from neighbouring areas
- 6. 6 Landscape Quality and Sensitivity to Change The assessment of townscape quality/value is the process of evaluating different character areas with regard to their character, condition, and aesthetic appeal and attaching a value to these areas. It also takes into account an appraisal of the likely value or importance to the community. The capacity of the landscape/townscape to accept change of the type and scale proposed has to be assessed based on the vulnerability of each character area to degradation through the introduction of new features, or through the loss of existing features.
- 7. 7 My new masterplan proposes to convert this brownfield site into urban mixed-use area contributing to the character of dockside to envisage the waterfront as a hub of activity and opportunity for urban food production. Proposed SUDS scheme unites the whole site. Royal Albert Way is covered with green bridges to mitigate the noise and to connect the site with surrounded area. With ‘green carpets’ it also counteracts the heat island effect. AutoCAD+ Photoshop
- 8. 8 The attractions with aquarium, new shopping/market hub, wetland and water activities will improve the site socially, ecologically, economically and aesthetically. The vision is to return the Royal Albert Dock to its former glory as a thriving, vibrant place to live, work and visit. AutoCAD + Photoshop
- 9. 9 GIS While doing the assessment GIS became one of important tools that helped me in my work especially in new design of SUDs system.
