Desired development
The northern area is a TU-important link between the old town and the Knowledge City Complex in the city and fulfill a social function relevant to the whole city. If we develop TU-North there is the opportunity do strengthen this link. On one hand you have the North with its new knowledge and development. And on the other hand, we have the historical center with its historical and touristic attraction to the city center.
History
First de ‘Julianalaan’ was the important artery. But after a while the ‘Michiel de Ruijterweg’ became the most important route in the TU-area.
Possible interpretations
Catering and retail
The northern TU-area is an important link between the old town and the Knowledge City Complex in the city and fulfill a social function relevant to the whole city. Conference facilities, hotel accommodations and catering facilities fit par excellence in this area. It will mainly considered related to the TU, such as retail bookstore or student or related functions.
Public Space
‘de Vries van Heijstplantsoen’ is of major influence on the appearance of the area. • maintaining and enhancing the Botanical Garden and the the ‘de Vries van Heijstplantsoen’; • improving the availability and accessibility of the ‘de Vries van Heijstplantsoen’; • principle is that the space around the buildings as a whole is organized, regardless of property boundaries; • valuable trees (groups) in the region have adequate space; • accessibility and quality of the residence area is improved by introduction of new trails
Traffic structure
In the current situation is the Julianalaan a physical barrier between the faculty of Architecture and ‘de Vries van Heijstplantsoen’, but with a renewed traffic structure it can be more like frontgarden of the building, or become more related to the Delft Science Center.
In Delft, in larger scale. the site is not central. It doesn't differeciate
IDENTITY
Traffic Analyse
Two main roads are surrounded our site and the traffic is really various
and busy.But for our site, there is no obvious road access into it, exuberant
trees and grass make it isolated by the other part of the city. It appears
a little deserted here.
Two Problems
There are two chief problems here-not accessible and not visible. Both of
the problems have a negative effect for the relationship between the people
and the site.The unfavorable condition make the behavior inside the region
almost cease out.
The pathological present situation
Habits makes things nature,people easily form the intuition that there is
no site here or it is unnecessary to explore the site. we want to do something
to change this status,making the site alive and attractive.
