INTRODUCTION 1.1 What is Urban Design? is the process of designing and shaping cities, towns and villages. In contrast to architecture, which focuses on the design of individual buildings, urban design deals with the larger scale of groups of buildings, streets and public spaces, whole neighborhoods and districts, and entire cities, with the goal of making urban areas functional, attractive, and sustainable (Wikipedia)

1.2 Why Urban Design?

Urban design is an inter-disciplinary subject that utilizes elements of many built environment professions, including landscape architecture, urban planning, architecture, civil and municipal engineering.It is common for professionals in all these disciplines to practice in urban design. In more recent times different sub-strands of urban design have emerged such as strategic urban design, landscape urbanism, water-sensitive urban design, and sustainable urbanism (Wikipedia)

ISSUE 2.1 Revitalizing the core A civic center is a prominent project and focal point within a community. Usually, it contains a prominent public building, a governmental building and/or a major shopping center. Recently, the term ‘civic center’ is used to refer to an entire central business district within a community. On the other hand, community centers are places where members of the community can gather for group activities. Community centers usually accommodate facilities, such as: commercial/retail, healthcare and fitness centers, educational and training firms, religious buildings (local mosques), recreational facilities and open spaces.

In reviewing similar projects, it was clear that there is no unified set of facilities that a civic center/community center should have. In most cases, the design of the spatial program is dependent on the local context; i.e. the accessibility to the project, the shortage of certain facilities, the socio-economic context of the district, the availability of land, the land cost, among other factors. Further, these centers are usually owned by one of the following entities/bodies: (1) the government/ municipality: the center is owned and run by the local authority, (2) a sponsor who affords the initial and running costs for reasons of charity or public relations, (3) an investor who aim at profiting from renting its facilities to various community groups on terms suitable for such use, or (4) the community itself through an organization separate from the local authority.

Till recent, most of the district centers in the city of Jeddah are left undeveloped, except for accommodating a mosque, a school or a garden. In addition, most, if not all, of these centers are owned by the government. Thus, the municipality affords the initial cost as well as the running cost of these projects, with almost no chance to make profits out of them. The first district center was launched in 2011, and 6 other projects followed at the beginning of 2013. By the end of 2013, a total of 10 projects were completed.

Social sustainability: most of the facilities offered do not support the social cohesion, integration and public gathering, except for the mosque which does this role for a limited time and for a certain group of people.

Filing the functional gap; in terms of providing the needed facilities and services.

Responding to that, the ‘Civic Center’/ ‘Community Center’ is proposed by Smart Growth Unit as an educational project for AR–598 course (Architectural Design Studio 7- urban design and context), to be further developed in the second semester as the graduation project; focusing on the architectural design of the proposed facilities.

Lack of services

Lack of Economic

Lack of uses

Based on the personal observation as well as the data available on the site of the municipality, one can argue that this type of development, lacks the following: Economic sustainability: most of these developments cannot stand alone without the support of the municipality/government, lacking the economic return that to help making profits or at least affording the running cost.

A NEW LONDON NEIGHBOURHOOD 3.1 A New London Neighbourhood The High Road West area is located in North Tottenham between the Greater Anglia rail corridor to the west and the High Road to the east.

It extends from Brook House in the north to Brereton Road in the south .Taken in its broader context the High Road West area is cut off from surrounding terraced street patterns by the elevated railway , which has limited crossing points , the Tottenham Hotspur Football Club stadium to the east and industrial warehouse units to the north .

It has potential for excellent access to significant area of open green space in the vicinity including Bruce Castle Park to the west and the Lee Valley Regional Park to the east

Open Space :

Landuse :

Public open space in High Road West will be doubled with a significant increase in the quality of public and private spaces. A new Moselle Square and community park will be delivered alongside secure shared courtyards and private gardens

High Road West will be a balanced community that matches the aspiration to create a mixed use development with a new leisure destination alongside a range of residential unit types and tenures.

SITE SELECTION 4.1 Location Goyezah Nieghborhood Is a residential area located southeast of the city of Jeddah and is one of the oldest parts of the city , this neighborhood has a historical stature that has neglected. In 1925 this neighborhood has seen the entry of Jeddah under the rule of the Saudi kingdom, and was the last point where the King Abdulaziz stopped

In 2009, when floods swept through the city of Jeddah was Qoyezah neighborhood first area affected by the floods and were more corpses filled the area and the reason for that neighborhood Qoyezah located in front of several of the most important valleys of the valley and the bow is a valley that came from the floods.

This neighborhood also features a geographical location alharamen road and its proximity to the King Abdulaziz University and the Haramain train station, and is the meeting point of several highways It has potential for excellent access to significant area of open green space in the vicinity including Bruce Castle Park to the west and the Lee Valley Regional Park to the east

SITE ANALYSIS OUTCOME 6.1 Design Issue

6.2 Objectives & Design criteria

There are variety of problems in the neighborhood , in several aspects relating to the individual, community and environment :

Floods - Protection from flood - Benefiting from flood water - Curing psychological damge from the experience of the floods

Summed up all the problems in the neighborhood to Qoyazeh into 6 differant design issues and they are : floods , pollution , integration , control ,econmical aspect and health

1.Floods

2.Pollution

3.Multi-level integration

4.Control & Security

5.Econmical Aspect

6.Health (Walkability)

Pollution - Avoid sewage - Community awareness - Find intelligent solutions for waste appearance.

Multi-level integration - Utilize the facilities of the project all day - Locate the services so intended people can use and be served by all facilities - Attract the neighborhoods nearby according to a system that will ensure benefits and economic success Control - Control nearby neighborhoods users.

- Design a “Priority for pedestrians� course movement Economic Aspects - Sustainability - Flexibility - Provide job opportunities for people - Attract people to use the commercial stores - Economic base ( rentable areas - sellable areas) Health (Walkability) - Enhance pedestrians - Disposal of contaminated - Provide health support - The reliance on the natural energy in ventilation and shade and shadows

6.3 Design Option High Level of Intervension

Low Level of Intervension

- The Many entrances to the neighborhood and the poor control of the circulation paths and the accessibility may led to a violation of privacy and safety

- The Many entrances to the neighborhood and the poor control of the circulation paths and the accessibility may led to a violation of privacy and safety

- Because of the many separated cores that are independent of its services it results in lack of integration between people

- The existence of entrances in particular areas will help in the control of outside users, which will provide safety and privacy to the neighborhood

- There is limited pedestrian that doesn’t encourage people to walk and maintain their health

- The cores become more integrated which helps in improving the social side between people

- The existence of the core, the commercial stores, the connected open spaces and providing safety inside the neighborhood, will encourage people to walk more and maintain their health

- There is many open spaces with no integration between them. So each one served its surroundings independently - They all became connected to each other and most of them are connected to the main axis

- There is no economic base to support and maintain the facilities inside the neighborhood

Figure (23) : option 1

46

- Regardless of the financial losses after creating main exit and changing some of the land uses and expropriation, this main axis will present a great economic base to the neighborhood

Figure (24) : option 2

CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT 7.1 Healthcare urbanism

The Change Change Mind

- Life of the saudi has been changed by several reason such as :

Strategies & Design Criteria :

- Preoccupation with work

Mind

- Lack of social interaction - Poor health (bad nutrition)

- Education & Training : The development of facilities serving more than one type of users in most of the time

71% of the death on saudi arabia by poor health (1)

- The separation of religious life for the world

Change Lifestyle Strategies & Design Criteria :

- Cognitive Dysfunction Arabs = 6mins pear year (2) Eurpeaon = 200 hours per year (2) - Visual pollution and the weakness of general taste

- Learn & Read : Provide high quality educational buildings serve all the users (differant ages)

Lifestyle

- Social communication : Provide public spaces and multi-purpose plaza to increase the social communication between the users - Reading : Make the reading place harmonious and overlapping with pedestrian path - Talent : Provide an exhibition that fits most of the common talents - Clear mind : Create landscape that help for meditation and relaxation

Change Body Body

Strategies & Design Criteria : - Health body : Find health spaces that serve the body (sport and healthy food spaces) - Beauty : Keep out the users from the environmental pollution

(1) : World Health Organization (2) : http://alkhaleejonline.net/ 50

- Walkability : Enhance pedestrian path and rely on the ramps and stairs and creating attractions

51

7.2 Scope of work

- There are three main nodes that we choosed to focus on

7.4 Controling

- Controling the entrances to increase the security to the nieghborhood

7.3 Removing

- Removing the building and replace them to the other overleft areas

7.5 Movement network

- re-designed the network to fit the direction of the design

7.6 Define node

7.7 Economic

7.8 Surveillance

7.9 Elevated

- Orgnizing the zones with the needs and uses to fit user’s needs

- Reduse the solid to increase the security and privacy

- holds itself through operating and maintaining

- Reduce the psychological effect that results from the floods in the past years

PRE-DESIGN ACTIVTIES 12.1 Why health club needed?

The project is a part of the urban designed in Goyezah neighborhood and it considered as the body core which provides the health lifestyle from the eating habits and the daily exercises at the beginning, Saudi Arabia has many diseases that came from the bad behaviors and the bad of lifestyle and lack of understanding of the body and how it works, also the carelessness of the body and health so in 2030 vision Saudi trying to lower the percentage of the smokers users and the percentage of obesity which is the main reason for most of these diseases Ministry of health trying its best to lower that high percentage of the overweight and obesity by getting the main causes of them, complications, diagnosis and treatment plans ...

Because of the lack of awareness in the compound in terms of health, people began to over-eat and lack of exercise daily that led to many chronic diseases and that need much care for treatment 1-Blood pressure 2-Diabetes 3-Heart Attack 4-Obesity 5-Brain attack 6-Arteriosclerosis 7-Cholesterol
