Harbor Haven

Cultured Coastline, Green Lifestyles

CONCEPT STATEMENT

In Harbor Haven, public areas are thoughtfully designed to be both sustainable and intricately woven into the fabric of neighborhood life. Our design is centered on developing green and inclusive public spaces that promote sustainability, social engagement, and accessibility for all. With its lively public squares, beautiful parks, and engaging waterfront promenades, Harbor Haven is a community that strives to make everyone feel like they belong. Sustainable landscaping, multipurpose street furniture, and intelligent lighting are given top priority in key combinations to improve the neighborhood's nighttime safety and aesthetic appeal. Harbor Haven seeks to realize our vision of a connected and sustainable urban community by transforming the public realm into vibrant, welcoming spaces that facilitate a variety of activities and experiences.

DESIGN MASTER PLAN

The master plan designs a mixed-use area that uses space, blending residential, commercial, and recreational zones. Residential zones are clustered around a central area, encouraging socializing. Easy access is ensured with green paths for pedestrians and bikers connecting various zones. Being near water allows for waterfront activities, and green spaces promote sustainability and improve the neighborhood's climate. Overall, the layout creates a cohesive and lively environment by striking a balance between open spaces and population density, functionality and aesthetics, and private areas and public facilities.

STREETSCAPE DESIGN (PLAN AND SECTION)

"Harbor Haven" reinvents the streetscape as a colorful canvas for community involvement, sustainability, and connectivity. With a focus on bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure, the design includes extensive bike and pedestrian pathways as well as a beautiful waterfront promenade to guarantee accessibility and enjoyment for all. Green infrastructure, such as rain gardens and permeable pavements, is given top priority in our streetscape to support environmental objectives and improve the aesthetics of public areas. This promotes sustainable mobility. Sustainable mobility options promote environmentally friendly transportation, such as electric vehicle charging facilities and bike-sharing stations.
