Patterns for Land-Use Planning – LUPL LUPL1
Stewardship of Shared Assets Recognize that the land does not stop at legal boundaries, whether of roads and utilities or of property lines. Where land use issues or opportunities spill across such boundaries, take the initiative in promoting joint stewardship and usage practices that benefit all.
Patterns for Campus Planning – CMPL CMPL1
Appropriate Density Group buildings in clusters of like or complementary kind to create hives of activity, consolidate services and preserve surrounding green space. Limit the spaces between buildings according to purpose (Captured Spaces/Outdoor Rooms). Limit the spaces between clusters to comfortable walking distances.
CMPL2
Captured Spaces/Outdoor Rooms Situate buildings so that they contain the spaces between and among them. Modulate the spaces between buildings to human scale and the spaces among groups of buildings to the collective scale of the buildings in order to form outdoor rooms appropriate to use by a few or many respectively.
CMPL3
Walking Campus Ensure that all of the facilities and significant sites of the whole campus are connected by appropriate pedestrian pathways. In planning these, consider the Celebration of Pathways and the accommodation of the disabled. Take positive steps to encourage walking rather than riding or driving, and give clear precedence to the pedestrian over the automobile.
CMPL4
Pedestrian Core So far as possible exclude automotive vehicles from a core area designated in the plan for Transportation, Circulation and Access. Where pedestrians and automobiles must share pathways, take measures to reinforce the primacy of pedestrians and to provide comfortable separation between the two. Where existing vehicular routes may no longer be required for automotive traffic but may serve as walking paths, reconfigure them to a scale and level of amenity appropriate to pedestrians.
CMPL5
Celebration of Pathways Recognize pathways as being the principal medium of experience in moving through and about the campus, and give attention to the quality of
