2. Our Area: Scotland Street Industrial Derelict Areas Demolition Redevelopment

3. Scotland Street – Industrial Tip?

4. Scotland Street – New Potential?

5. Scotland Street – Community Spirit?

6. Possible Sites - A Built into hillside Why have buildings been demolished? Unsafe site? Great views from top Large plot

7. Possible Sites - B Sloping ground Great views Corner plot Not much space to expand

8. Chosen Site (B)

9. Good access Near to local pub Good size plot Unused land Not enclosed by other buildings

10. Issues Security important  CCTV  High walls  Barbed wire  Boarded up windows  Graffiti Little green sites Noise from industry Steep gradients

11. Initial Ideas Stepped building on hill Roofs match gradient of slope Glass roofs (lack of privacy in bedroom areas) Buildings on stilts (unnecessary) Fit in with local styles Communal living area with separate bedrooms Balconies (possible security risk)

12. Design Process

13. Problems & Solutions Stairs taking up too much space Roof too flat Entrance not obvious Dark landing in top section Lack of emergency escape Sloping ground blocking entrances & fire exits Windows too low to ground (security risk) Reduce difference between floor levels & change position of lower stairs Change roof angles Porch feature added Add skylight Include escape route on every level Dig out section to provide flat path or added stairs High narrow windows

14. Final Design Different angled roofs Only living area has glass roof Scale 1:20
