1. Traffic Planning
Shared Space:
This concept is designed by Mr. Monderman, it is designed to create safety without rules. It should make people aware of eachother, 'Respect instead of rules'. Everybody can make use of this space if they keep their speed limit to 20 km/h.
In our design the 'Ground Layer' is a shared space.
Shared Space Entrance
The site has several entrances. These four entrances are connected to the surrounding traffic system.
Traffic Sign Location
To make clear which entrance the road users should take, the surrounding systems should be provide with signs to inform them. The orange circles show where the signs should be located to prevent confusing situations.
Road Directions 1
The road can be connected to the surrounding traffic systems in different ways, here you can see several of them.

2. Traffic Scenarios
Blocks: The Beast are comprised with 6 blocks and several pieces of connections in between. Each block which has been designed as a functional space is guided by 6 tracks, thus flexible space could become movable to adapt to different scenarios.
6 Beasts: There will be 6 Beasts moving, twisting, and activating the site. They could be stretching by the elastic connections in between.
" Life Habit " of the Beasts
The Beasts change the site's state by generating space for traffic road on different positions.
3. Master Plan
The Master-plan indicates one scenario of the road direction and space division. There are five rows of the Beast structure on the site always with a void space in between for the traffic roads.
The arrangement of the five Beasts is depending on time schedule of the surrounding buildings and different kinds of requirements of users.
