GSA Projects

The site which is located at extension 10 is a pedestrian corridor that is placed at the center of the neighborhood. We chose the site due to the fact that it is currently not functioning to its full potential with it being underutilized and currently failing to provide safe and comfortable movement of pedestrian throughout the site. The site will be part of a Green Space project to assist in its activation while also insuring that it is eco-friendly and taking into consideration the climate change effects. The design process followed a process that will be detailed in the design portfolio. The site visits assisted in the site analysis information, the ideation stages assisted in the conceptualization of the design as well as the design itself. We are a team of 3 being Ndulamo Chaza, Katlego Mitchell Swapo and Lame Ndlovu

The vision for our site is to create a green open space which is active and compliments the neighboring land use activities such as retail and medical services. The idea is to allow the site to reach its full potential of functionality and climate action contribution.

Our Project site is the Notwane river buffer zone located West of Riverwalk mall. We chose this area because we saw its potential and how it was underused. In designing this site, we took first-hand information from the experiences of people who normally use the site, the hawkers who trade near the site

Our project site is located along the Segoditshane Corridor between Block 3 and Phase 2 residential areas overlooking the CBD. We choose this site as it is the best place to address the environmental and socio-economic needs of both communities. We are a team of 4, being Gorata Mogomotsi, Wabuya Balisi, Omogolo Sejamitlwa and Oyedzere Lekgoko.

The Green Spaces Atlas (GSA) is an initiative that gives young urban planners and designers the tools and support to conceptualise and visualise urban green space (UGS) projects for abandoned and neglected neighbourhoods in their cities.
