Description

This module is a project-based, practice-linked 15 credit module which seeks to bind the new two year MPlan City Planning together through a series of live planning exercises which draw from a broad range of skills. The module will, in essence, be a mixture of lectures, student-led project work and field work. The module will be based upon the urban planning challenges of densification for London (and other cities). The module will run in the second term of the first year of the MPlan, and will be a precursor to BPLN0006 Plan Making Studio II. Working with our practice-based partners, students will work in small teams to produce a masterplan for a major area of redevelopment. The issue of densification will frame the solution for the site in question. Examples of sites include Charlton Riverside, Silvertown and Poplar.
