The gravity fed irrigation system links all the growing areas including the climbers and the roof gardens throughout the site.

The main square area, though its not square it is the open space at the off centre of the site that has a wide variety of uses including play performance meeting dance fountain or just relaxing.

The main building block of the site has a multitude of functions. It form creates the outer ring of the site. It embraces the site to the north and west and is tiered down towards the centre. The tallest part are all stepped back and greened and do not encroach on the open view of the sky. At ground level there is a colonnaded walkway with shops restaurants galleries and education spaces. The seating outside can be stored at the end of the colonnade as are the stalls for the weekly markets.

There are pop up cafes and shops and new enterprise is encouraged through investment in start ups and fair rent schemes.

Construction details Construction details for the development of a Park site. The site was undulating and in places poorly drained. To create access to wild spaces I needed to create pathways that were robust, free draining and not too intrusive. The materiality and the construction of SuDS managed the landscape to allow visitors to dwell and explore.

The brief was to create a cafe and seating area in the heart of Barnwwod Arboretum and Park. I researched many ideas for the materials for the bulit form and the surfaces prioritising their resilience and “sponge” qualities. Stabilising planting and retaining walls were needed to create a spillout seating area for the cafe.

STRETEGIC LAYERS FOR THE MASTER PLANNING OF A NEW SETTLEMENT IN THE FOREST OF DEAN

STRATEGY SHEET.

BL AI SD ON

The landscape provides the character and context of the settlement. The site sits within an historic and characterful landscape of rolling meadows bounded by ancient hedgerows. To the North East is the native and semi ancient woodland of Ley Park to the south pasture land runs down to the river Severn. The GI of the settlement has maintained 80% of existing hedgerow and creates a further 100% increase in linear hedgerow planting along existing watercourses and green active travel routes and roads of the site.

The land to the north of the site is designated for bio fuel crops and also has biodiverse native planted buffers and riparian habitats along the Westbury brook and mitigation ponds and suds features. Community orchards and allotment space take into account the heritage of the area and area a key component of the recreational green spaces. the pedestrian and active travel routes that crisscross the site are also wildlife corridors and provide permeability for people and nature.

The GI provides economic sustainability for the settlement and while the settlement is not self-contained the GI provides jobs and a boost to the local economy. The Anaerobic digester has potential to get 60% of its raw materials from the north of the site.

Orchards an allotments supplement diets and provide for local retail and schools. LAPS, LEAPS. NEAPS are components of the GI and use natural local materials in their construction. The GI is an important part of the SuDS design of the settlement and permeates the site. Green streets encourage active travel, clean air and healthy lives.

The landscape of the settlement is a complex system of meadows and irrigation ditches and brooks. The water has been carefully managed to mitigate flooding and irrigate crops for centuries. The management of water on the site makes use of these existing systems. Water naturally flows from the highest parts of the site around Blaisdon and into the brooks that run to the Severn. The existing irrigation channels and waterways have been maintained and augmented. The main Westbury Brook has an additional retention pond which provides opportunity for creating a species rich environment and potential for introduction of beavers and other threatened species. It also crucially allows for retention of flood waters and is part of a system of retention ponds throughout the settlement which manage and slow the flow of rain water and increase biodiversity and the range of habitats. The Settlement will, with the construction of roads and buildings, create more runoff and these are mitigated through the use of swales and rills that are integral design components of routes and buildings across the settlement. The surfaces are pervious and SuDS systems are a response to climate change and designed to manage increasingly severe flood events. The immediate proximity of the Westbury Brook is flood Zone 2 and has been prioritised for mitigation infrastructure including mitigation ponds and native woodland planting. These areas exemplify the interplay of the green and blue infrstructure. both are interdependent and thedesign creates a sustainable and increased species rich environment that works with nature.

Retention ponds. The ponds managed by a system of leats and sluices provide flood defences and rich wildlife habitats.

Attenuation Ponds. These ponds capture rainwater, slow the rate of water into the Severn and provide habitat and irrigation water.

Surface water direction.The flow of surface water dictates the alignment of SuDs features on site and the wider landscape.

Watercourse flow direction. Water flows on and off the settlement and is mangaged from source to discharge in the Severn

Water courses. Existing and new and augmentented water courses work with the terrain and account for new infrastrcture.

The movement strategy promotes sustainable modes of travel across the settlement. The settlement is well connected to mass transport systems and has a main rail and transport hub. The hubs of which there are three provide access to electric bikes, scooters and buggies for use within the settlement and beyond.

Active travel is promoted though open dedicated and inviting green routes which are car free. There is car access to 70% of the site. EVs are accommodated with charging points and residential and peripheral parking areas. The disused railway is a walking and wheeling superhighway and is linked in to the National Cycle Network. Businesses such as local shops and cafes are strategically placed along routes creating inclusive, inviting, green travel corridors that are as much a destination as a means of getting from A to B. The settlement is created to be as permeable as possible with routes leading to adjacent towns and villages and green space. Access to major national and regional routes is key as commuting for work is an inevitable aspect of the economy of residents. A new road links to the A4136 and the A40 in the north and there is good access to the A48 to the south. All the amenities of the site are within a walkable distance and there is duplication of communitiy resoiurces to ensure that education soial and healthcare facilities are within easy reach. Local fulfillment centres at the hubs cut carbon emmisions of last mile deliveries down by 80%. employment infrastructure such as light industry is located near the train station. rsidentilal area promote Home Zones and walkability with play on the way opportunities and give people priority.

ACCESS AND MOVEMENT

Employment and light industry.

There is an average net density of 46 dwellings per hectare (dph) with a range of house types from 1 bedroom apartments to large, detached houses. The high density build is around the three hubs of the settlement which are the major transport hubs and community and business areas. There is a delineation of high medium and low density. These densities have variation within them and offer very low density when adjacent to sensitive areas such as riverside, wild, riparian and existing woodland areas. Similarly, dph will be higher at the settlement centres.

The spatial distribution of the housing is designed to create inclusive vibrant communities that are well designed, sustainable and carbon neutral. They are a part of the green infrastructure with 50% supporting green roofs all with access to private or communal gardens and growing spaces and all built prioritising solar gain. All the housing of the settlement follow the Passivhaus design principles and orientate to the east- west axis 30° off set for maximum gain. This fits with the slope and aspect of the site which influenced its shortlisting in phase1.While the built forms address environmental sustainability they also foster social and economic sustainability. For example, sustainable transport options such as cycling and walking reduce environmental impact but also bring benefits for personal health and well-being; walkable communities encourage social connection.

In addition to the 5275 dwellings covering 110ha there is employment land and social and community land covering a combined 84ha. GI accounts for 50% of the total which brings the land budge for the settlement to 388ha.

BUILDING TYPOLOGIES.

HIGH DENSITY CENTRES.

MEDIUM DENSITY DWELLING.

LOW DENSITY DWELLING.

There are 4 main centres of the settlement. The primary travel and contextual hub is to the south east and is the main train station. It provides up to 6 storey 1 to 4 bed apartments with mixed retail and social amenity spaces on the ground floor. The second in the centre of the settlement provides similar dwelling density with shops, entertainment, education and social and healthcare amenity. The third to the south west differs in that it is traffic free and while offering all the above amenity and housing density it is served by active travel routes and EV connectivity for services such as waste. The last hub has a different character again and is the historic village of Blaisdon. A conservation area that is developed as a s social and heritage focal point. The hubs are vibrant and characterful living spaces that are destinations, places to dwell as much as they are gateways to the world beyond. the high density areas bring green infrastructure into the communal and civic spaces. the GI is multifunctional in nature. The swales and rills offer opportunity for increasing biodiversity as do wild orchards and parks and water features suchas the retention ponds. The tree lined streets, green roofs and planted open spaces mitigate the Albedo effect and provide natural beauty in theheart of the settlement.

These areas are primarily residential but have a wide variety of shops and small business strategically scattered within them. Cafes and exhibition spaces near parks and green infrastructure. personal transport hubs with workshops and retail as well as cafes and education centres are situated along the traffic free routes of the settlement. The green and blue infrastructures inform the layout of the settlement and the travel arteries that flow through it. The linear green corridors of the retained hedgerows and riparian corridors of the brooks take precedence over the new development.

Bridges cross the brooks and roads follow the lines of the wildlife corridors allowing them, where possible, to be uninterrupted. The streets follow the Home Zone and Garden communities design codes and put the priority on safe, green, living streets that are enjoyable place to be. The housing is mixed in architectural design but has key features. It follows Passivhaus design and where possible has flat green roof systems and photovoltaic provision throughout. The housing is aligned for maximum solar gain and uses local sustainable materials in their construction. Within these parameters there is scope for a range of different architectural styles and approaches which give the settlement a varied architectural pallet.

The division of the housing densities is not rigid in its layout. There is a seamlessness to the movement from one zone to another and there is variation at their borders particularly when in proximity to green and blue infrastructure and road networks. The low density dwelling areas have many of the design qualities of the medium and high areas. The housing encourages active travel through connectivity and providing offsite parking and good public transport. Most areas are accessible by car, with incentive to low and no emission vehicles.The GI in the low density dwelling areas is multi-functional and nature led. The design prioritises increasing biodiversity and maintaining natural processes in the landscape particularly along the brooks, native woodlands and meadows.

Here there are opportunities to live sustainably and sympathetically within the natural environment. There are more gardens, private and communal and opportunities for both recreational and productive use. With greater space between properties there is also provision for wind turbines to accompany solar panels on the largely green and brown roof spaces. Dwellings within the low density areas can be up to 4 storeys high and cluster dwellings in order to avoid replication of resources such as heating and waste management.

Masterplan.

In this master plan I have tried to convey the concept of the whole development without the overall impression being too cluttered. I have populated the zones of the site with people to give a sense of use, life and activity. The planting was core to the overall concept and I have rendered it in vibrant greens and darker shadow. It aims to keep an analogue feel and not be overly rendered. I was mindful that this is a diagram and while being engaging needs to convey the necessary information.

The building on top of the carpark and at the highest points of the site is a multifunctional space. It’s a restaurant supplied by the vegetable garden adjacent to it and a meeting place. It has teaching rooms and would offer courses in sustainable technologies such as horticulture and sustainable energy technologies.. There are a variety of solar and wind energy capture technologies on the roof space. The buildings carbon neutral and is used as an example of best practice.

Opposite there are the vegetable plots and beyond that the multifunction skate and play park.

1. and 4. Bottière Chênaie. Nantes, France.

This award winning development is landscape led multi-density site that develops the ecology and existing natural environment to brilliant effect.

Describes itself as an “urban park that goes hand in hand with and balances the new densities, its mainly indigenous vegetation will contribute to the expression of a nature regained.” It uses parcels of multi-functional green infrastructure set withing a framework that follows the natural lay of the land including the water ways and field systems.

Transferable qualities.

The project makes the water features central to the development and a key part of the settlements identity. Beech Brook and Longhope Brook flow from the core forest and into Westbury Brook and within 2 miles into the river Severn. This focus on blue infrastructure and the biodiversity it carries is core to the settlements design.

The use of Passivhaus and mixes of sustainable architectural styles influenced the design of the settlement.

The mingling of productive small communal gardens and park land amongst dwellings too give a strong identity and put the green infrastructure at the heart of the development.

2. MeMo House in San Isidro, Argentina, The house was developed as a 3-dimensional garden and dwelling.

Transferable Qualities Designed to have the minimal impact on the natural landscape of the site, the garden connects all architectural floors and creates a continuous garden terrace. The boundaries between landscape and dwelling a blurred and are merged.

3. Bioswale for stormwater treatment at the Meriwether mixed use development in the South Waterfront District, Portland, Oregon.

Transferable Qualities The swales bring nature led habitat and increased biodiversity into the street and avenues of the settlements and perform a vital water/ flood management role.

Their permeability is a key feature with multiple types of crossing.

5. Bristol and Bath Railway Path, Bristol to Bath.

Transferable qualities This traffic free route follows a disused railway line along the Avon valley and has many similarities to the line that runs through the settlement. It has developed existing GI and has become a destination as much as a route. Active travel routes increase peoples health, not just physical but mental health and adress increasing transport poverty.This is where people ar isolated and cannot connect with the services around them. This infrastucture is vital to the success of the settlement.

1.Monnickendam, Kohnstamm Netherlands.

This development makes use of locally sourced and sustainable modular timber buildings set in a forest landscape. the buildings are 4 storey yet blend well into their surroundings. The density of the build impacts positively on the landscape leaving the native woodland and open spaces undamaged.

Transferable Qualities.

The use of sustainable materials and the priority given to the landscape in which the built form sits is core to the design.

The development increases biodiversity and develops the GI seeing it as an opportunity to benefit residents wellbeing.

The design is a response to climate change, sustainably managed forests capture CO2. Timber is a renewable raw material, it is a circular building material that can be sourced locally.

2. Ostro Passivhaus. Kippen, Scotland This is a recent example of Passivhaus design and demonstrates how architecturally varied designs can be while still meeting the exacting standards needed to qualify for the Passivhaus certification.

Transferable Qualities.

The approach is essential for meeting 2030 carbon targets and this impacts not just the success of the settlement but the global climate and biodiversity of the surrounding landscape.

3.Upton,Northhampton Upton is an exemplar Eco Town development, pioneering the sustainable urban neighbourhood.

Transferable Qualities.

Homes are ultra sustainable and affordable they support the economic model of the settlement in line with garden communities. The native woodland and open spaces surround the developments and the housing is pat of the landscape and not at odds with it.

The SuDS across the site were introduced to mitigate surface water flooding resulting from increased urban development. However, SuDS also deliver multiple environmental benefits. In addition to managing flows, volumes, and diffuse pollution some components (particularly vegetated or landscaped features) can positively impact air quality and reduce carbon.

5. Mobility hub. Glasgow, Trongate, Scotland.

There are four major hub across the settlement with smaller satellite hubs throughout. They are vital to the connectivity of the site.

Transferable Qualities.

Mobility hubs increase transport links, improve public health, bring economic benefits to the local community and save people money.

They enable people to a make healthy choices about how they travel

1.Flimwell park, East Sussex.

The design Flimwell Park has been inspired by ecologists, planners and designers who have built upon the historic relationship between the region and its landscape. it is small scale, over 46 acres but prioritises the landscape building sympathetically within native woodland.

Transferable Qualities.

The site prioritises the value of woodlands for benefiting residents health and wellbeing.

The site is within an area of outstanding beauty and works with the existing landscape.

The hedgerows of the settlement are richly biodiverse and contain many large mature native trees particularly Oak the need to protect and enhance these habitats is essential and done well at Flimwell.

2.. Elmsbrook, Charlotte Ave, Bicester.

The town is a pioneering eco town with carbon neutral housing and 50% native GI and wild habitats developed to increase biodiversity.

Transferable Qualities.

Combined heat powerplant serves all homes which is extremely efficient.

There is widespread us of green roofs to increase biodiversity and offset albedo effect slow rainfall runoff and increase insulation.

Combined input of solar panels across the site means net zero carbon emissions over a year.

Use of wide buffer zones around hedgerows provide wildlife corridors.

3.Wind Turbines, Futago District Karatsu City, Japan.

With increased efficiency and durability wind turbines are smaller, quieter and less obtrusive in the landscape than before, making them increasingly part of renewable energy approaches to new settlements. The turbines pictured create up to 15kw of electricity and support the settlements carbon neutral energy goals.

Transferable qualities.

They produce significant amounts of electricity to power homes, lighting and transport across the site.

Smaller units are more flexible in their placement positioning and removal around the site.

4. and 5.Anaerobic Digester and Biomethane-to-Grid Plant, Poundbury Dorset.

The plant has already been generating renewable electricity since April, and over the course of a year will export enough electricity for approximately 500 homes. The plant produces a net carbon saving of around 4,435 tonnes of CO2 equivalent emissions a year.

Transferable qualities.

This model of energy production is an efficient response to climate change a key component of the energy strategy of the settlement. A proportion of the bio crop would be grown on site near Blaisdon.
