0. Introduction

0.1ABSTRACTThis work seeks to nd and investigate the most relevant aspects about the urbanism project o

STRAND EAST in London, emphasizing on those particular elements that dene it.

We will tackle this question starting rom a more general standpoint o the project and delving intothe recently developed district o Stratord, in which the new Olympic park has been ounded.Firstly, we achieved to know and describe it; we can nally analyze the approach and ideas involvedin its creation. Then, we tried to understand and interrogate rom dierent scale and dierent pointo view.

We decided to describe the project in two steps:

The rst step is the description o the general structure interpreting the general characteristicso blocks, grid and public space;

The second step is to describe more in deeply the conguration o the single elements compo-sed the project.

In the descriptions o the the general structure we saw how various elements is dierences romother and how these dierences create dierences spaces, relationships and unctions; so we divi-ded the area in ve quarters and interpreted the principal characteristics.

We start up our work by searching books, magazines and websites related to the matter and elabo-

rating an index (all the reerences used will thoroughly appear in the Bibliography). Then, we try toset which material needs to be elaborated or analyzed or each o the points in the index to have an

idea on what to work. Since each o us has a dierent eld o knowledge and studies, we can enrichourselves by sharing the work, thus, we try to work together as much as possible.

Strand east is a new project or the rede-velopment o Stratord. The project containa big area in Stratord where are localizedanother our project and the most impor-tant is the Olympic park or Olympic game

2012. The area is an ex industrial districtscharacterized or the presence o industrialheritage.The promoter o the project are Stratorddistrict and the most important developeris IKEA group, would realize a new sustai-nable project in an area will be a new centerin the urban region o London. The quarteris delimited at North rom the High Street A

12, at East and South rom Three Mills Wallriver and at West rom River Lee Navigation.

The Olympic Games is a big event

or a State in particular or the hostcity; in this case London. The pro-cess starting rom a project (ma-sterplan) o the area is realizing theOlympic Park all in accordance withthe London Plan.

The London Borough o Newhamexposes the guidelines and theprincipal strategy: Housing stra-tegy, economic development stra-tegy, property strategy, strategy osustainable communities.

Ater this the master plan ollowsthe guidelines and elaborates theprojects. In this case there are ewmaster plan revolve around theStratord Metropolitan Masterplan.

Status o the area today

Img. 7: Industrial presence today (source: Google Earth and personal elaboration)

The old grid is characterized or simplicity: two stre-ets to connect industrial abric and highway. Thisstructure can be acceptable or an industrial quar-ter were the connection with the context is insigni-cant. These are the principal elements:

No relationship with the context;

Regular grid;

Access only rom the high-street.

The new grid presents some dierent ele-ments; rom the old structure resumes onlythe two streets, modiying and create newaccess:

Irregular grid;

Relationship with the context (three newbridge)

Realized on the human dimension

The space is characterized or more spa-ce to pedestrian

According to our points o view, it is important to denehow the characteristic o the old structure and the newone are related in order to understand the changes that

the project brings in the area. At this point, a question cancould be: Does the project take some points rom the oldstructure?

The urban space can be also experienced by our perception andcognition. As indicated in the Public Places Urban Spaces, we can explainthe urban environment with the help o dierent level o difculty in mentallygrouping variety o elements rom the visual interpretation into a generaloutlook. (170) Thereore, some components can be used in the reading ovisual dimension o an urban space such as sense o patterns, appreciationo rhythm, recognition o balance and harmony. As a result, when analyzedthe Strand East in terms o visual observation, we can examine some cru-cial a sequence o prevailing panoramic views to the project area at the rstglance. The reason or this is to covered by the water element rom threesides. Also, when considering the height o loors, the sense o rhythm canbe observed, especially on the High Road.

As indicated above, on the account o the sur-rounding three sides by natural elements creates main

vistas without any visual barrier. The axe in the middleo project enables the orientation with the help o us-ing grouped elements/buildings through parallelism.In addition to this, some important buildings outsideo the area, or example, The Gasholders can be onthe High Street across the Bow Back River and are aurther reminder o Londons growth in the nineteenthcentury. (Sugar House Lane Masterplanning Assess-ment, 23)

There is another approach to create controlledpanoramas into the project area in order to provide thedetection o surrounding buildings. When consideringthe existing industrial plan o the site, there were threechimneys which have a role as landmarks. The projectcommonly preserved their spaces by opening thesespaces as squares and this leads to a clear vision.

Moreover, the Three Mills complex can be ob-served rom southwards along Sugar House Lane.

The most perceivable element is the landmarko the project. It is immediately obvious and become ap-parent rom every aspect o the site.

Also, aade rhythms can be readily conceivedwhen walking though the environment o the river path.Thereore, it relects the variety o sensations containedwithin it because the balance o them change accordingthe eature o the space.

3.3MAIN STRUCTURE

Strand east shows how a sustainable projectcan be done because it is developed by a gre-at organization o transport, open space.The area is totally viable by oot.

The quarter is composed by three dierenttype o building; the dierences betweenthem concern about their position and theunction taking in place. The project reinter-preted the present layout (industrial district).

The most part o Strand East is occupied byresidential area. Here we can nd the mostvital part o interaction space because thestructure is composed by open court in whichthe street are open and the buildings loor arelowest.

General point o view


BlocksStrand East is composed by three

types o blocks: court, tower andlinear. These are characterizedor the relationship with the openspace and or their unctions. Re-sidential buildings are composedby two courts on up to our loorsand one up to three loors. Thetower has up to six rom sixteenloors and the linear blocks haveup to ve-six loors.

StreetsThey are not much developedbecause the principal scope oproject is to realize a quarter wi-thout car so the street is only orthe public transport. The uniqueentrance (or the transport) is lo-calized at north where there is theHigh Street A 12 and or the rest isall composed o sustainable tran-sport systems like pedestrian andbicycle.

GreenIn the project there isnt a lot ogreen area. The most important islocalized on the river West wherethe linear blocks are setback tocreate a ront on the river. The gre-

en on the East side is private orthe residential.

CourtyardThe space included by court is

characterized rom dierent con-nection and open space. Residen-tial blocks create open space (th-ree loors) and a continuous visualperspective; where there are ourloors create a semi-private spaceor the inhabitants; the last spaceis private space characterized thecommercial area where there areall work and service or the com-mercial space.

Public spaceAlmost 80.000 mq are or the pu-blic space. In the quarter it assu-

mes dierent characteristic aboutthe relations create with building,we can divided it in: square, inte-raction space and transit space.

Court, linear blocks

Strand East is characterized by ew elements related to each other:block, grid, and public space. These elements are distinguished to eachother or the unction o the space (residential, commercial, and tertiary).

The space is characterized by die-rent types o buildings (court, linearblocks). This type has a relation withthe sourrounding space in dierentway on the account o the act that itdepends on its orm.

The project is characterized or the pre-sent o only two streets and the otherspace is composed by pedestrian ways.The sketch o grid presents the characte-ristic o European grid, irregular not well-dened by regular blocks.

It is explained beore the projectand is identied by dierent re-lationship among public space,buildings and their orm.

On the side, we can see how thebuildings are arranged to createpublic space.

In the northern part (commercialarea) the high building are over-looking the street and create a

corridor inside the project; theriverside quarter on West createa green area between its and theriver and a barrier in direction othe street. The riverside quarteron East create a waterront onThree Mills River and an interac-tion space between the linearblock and the court. The centerquarter create a semi-publicspace between the building withthree loors and a continuumrom the north and the south.The southern building creates asquare among the tower.

2. A Commercial Quarter would sit along the northern part o the site, adjoiningthe high street, northern and western boundaries o the site.

3. A Residential Quarter sits at the heart o Strand East which will be characterizedby low level mews housing, with shared internal garden courtyards and semi-privatespaces;

4. A Riverside Quarter east and west, will sit at the water side edges o StrandEast with housing arranged in a linear ashion along the waterront. In some instancesbuildings may be placed immediately on the waters edge, in other locations it would beset back to create public space adjacent to the water.

5. The Hub is the quarter at the south end o the site, with a community buildingat its heart, surrounded by caes, bars and small shops that will look out onto a publicsquare and the water.

One o the most important act is the dierence othe public space rom one side to the other o thispart o the project. This is visible in the section andalso we can understand that, probably, is due to thepresence o the street which bound the public spa-ce, then in the other part, it is protected betweenthe block.

This part is the only one in whichthe building type is a series o

Here we can see that the stre-et, unlike the rest o the nei-ghborhood, gives orm at thepart composing the blocks andtransorming it in a sort o line-ar building.

Here we try to show, as also inthe other pages, how the blockworks.

The second part is that we havedened urban heritage becau-

se here the aim o the projectis try to maintain some existingbuilding and to add some othersthat resemble the old structure.

Now is possibly to understandwhy this part is so dierent romthe others.

For us, also, here the design hastried to make more recogniza-ble this part with the idea to puthere the two highest landmarks.

(Ones is the woods tower)

These parts, as we can see, aresimilar at two island; both orthe building and or the gene-ral structure (as already said).

In this case however the part isntcrossed by the road but only bythe public spaces that, with the

ex-industrial ramework, modiythe block.

Now, we know that in this part (but is truealso or the residential part) that the publicspace is very important in the denition othe block.

With these images we have tried toshow that the public space trans-orm also the grid and the blocksthat could be (on the let)something dierent rom

what they will be in the realty.

The center o the project is

There is also the visual perspec-tive that divide the block in a lon-gitudinally way and open it orinternal square (and so or thepublic space).

The quarter is composed by courtyard buildings.This buildings create a dierent space in eachpart: Semi-public and semi-private. The block iscomposed by dierent levels: a perimetral buil-ding (six loors) and an internal building (threeloors).

will create a very dierent space, onehas open-green and the other one ispublic, but closed with the buildings.

4. Parts interpretation

How does public space work?

As we said the public space is very important; here to underline this act we have tried to show thestrictly connections with the block. For example in the rst scheme is possible to see that the pu-blic space pass into the block rom north to south, but not rom west to east (and that is visiblealso in the blocks. Then in the second and in the third scheme we can see the sequence o thespaces and which are more important than others.

Which part?


Then or the last part is useul tosay that this commercial encla-ve is a sort o another island but

is dierent rom the heritageone.

Firstly, this part is completelynew; secondly the spaces aremore big and green.

Also, in this part the buildingsare a quite high tower that createa huge square.

In conclusion, we can say

that also the public spacemodies the block and re-treats the plots.Being totally devoted tothe commercial unctioncan be risky to be a ghostplace in the evening.

Which building?

These parts o the river, as wesaid, are similar. One o these si-milarities is that both have a C

shape due to the public spacethat retreat the plot and create asquare (green or built).

As we can see in the sections the

width o these two spaces is di-erent and so also the practicesthat will be possible.

Another important act is thatthe buildings seems to protect

the public space against the street and the (or the east part)river.

A sort o enclave around public space

This is one o the most complex part o our work because is quite easy to be banal saying what isbeautiul or ugly. We tried to avoid this point o view in order to nd a general backbones.

For us the rst step is to underline that one o the bones is or sure thepublic space.

We listed many times its importance inside each part o the project andalso among them.In this scheme we already said that the public space generates both theorm o the grid and the orm o the blocks; however, as we know it is notthe only actor that can to do this.

Here we can see the street and how it is able to modiy deeply the orm othe blocks and the spaces.We can see clearly that all buildings along the street are linear and theyare not open (excluding the basic way to circulate by oot and by bicycle).

This scheme is useul, one more time, to understand betterthe importance o public space. We can see on theright how it is the rst act o the orm o the block.We can observe that when two or three main public axis

join it to create a sort o square or a place with

a dierent buildings characteristics (more or lesshigher than the rest).

As a conclusion, it can be underlined that this project is quite interestingmainly or the act that is small but very ull o conceptual topic. It may bethought well by the designers but it is more signicant. To sum up, whenconsidering the importance o the project, it can be pointed out that the

project try to combine a lot o topics in terms o urban design sphere.
