Lille Workshop- 2011 - Day Two / Three


Day two - we were put into our groups and then sent in our site visit! Key words to explain the site:
exposed, cold, derelict and vast!
The site is an extension on the Euro Technologies and was to have a minimum of 1000 housing unit- with sustainability in mind, green spaces and  places of interest.


Euro technologies water filtration system with reed beds
- water is filtered before it enters the canal.


The canal is currently home to 9 barges -
Lille was keen to explore the possibility of introducing more house boats into this area.





Key derelict factories







Concept:
Connecting the area with Citadelle, Lomme and the many parks further down the canal
- with a large green corridor connecting them together

Marie , Laura and Chris working on our master plan


Our final master plan we then presented on Tuesday afternoon
-the tutors then decided to team groups up according to the simularity of the concepts.
