04. Design a healthy and well-being Woolloongabba Five Year
The project of a healthy and well-being Woolloongabba is to design a lifestyle of a healthy and active neighborhood in Gabba. As a fast-growing suburb with a lot of opportunities surrounding the neighborhood, the future of Gabba had its demand. With the future demographic of the young population and a fast increasing population rate plus future completion of the infrastructure with the potential Olympic venue, the future of Woolloongabba needs to redesign its urban built form focusing on a living quality, movement, and community engagement. An urban framework of health and wellbeing with the aspects of physical and mentally healthy are vital in the future Gabba. The project will focus on two aspects of the community which are physical and mentally healthy, utilizing the physical and aesthetic built form to create the future of Woolloongabba with an interactive, green, walkable, open, and socially active environment. This is a fiveyear second-semester individual project.
