BedZed - Green Urban Living Community.
Bill Dunster is an English architect who works on urban developments integrating all the concepts of sustainable development.
The clip below explains these integrated concepts.
In this scheme, the Dunster's architecture firm also called the "Zed factory" has taken the principles of an NGO called "Bioregional" which combines local resources including materials and jobs, maximizing the link between urban and rural areas and minimizing motorised transport.
The project focused on 3-storey buildings, with work spaces located in the South and gardens on the roofs, which enables all apartments to have an area of greenery outside.
Similar to my own future vision in which live, work, play is a combined entity within an architecture as a result of decentralisation occurring; it is evident that these three functions must be physically separated within the spacial planning for successful functionality.
