We do this through a three-phase process of generative-ideation. Opposite/below are examples of artefacts that were generated for a mixed-use development project in Brunswick. Typically this process occurs prior to engaging an architect but can be adapted as a mode of interrogation of preliminary architectural plans. The full process includes the following phases. Firstly, we combine participatory walks and video-making to document the lived experiences and practices of place. Opposite/below are examples of our video-making techniques such as alternate soundscapes, dialogic montage, interpretive storyboards and communicative overlays. Through these artefacts we begin to identify the needs of the people and place.Secondly, we use evidence-based trends to substantiate our observations and generate scenario diagrams to help clients think about why they would approach the local community and for what purpose(s). The diagrams opposite/below illustrate how the identification of particular human needs led to a proposal for flexible and communal spaces. The final phase of the process involves direct interaction with the community. We curate particular encounters between clients and emergent practitioners and businesses who are inhabitants and adopters of the spatial forms and practices explored earlier in the process. We find that these interactions can lead to alliance building where local trusted actors become a part of the formal planning and design process. <img width="1298" height="730" width_o="1298" height_o="730" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0340605da3324330abca8781e643cf9b85f7e6d3199bba310a892e677c6e32f4/tiptop_one.png" data-mid="69180959" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/0340605da3324330abca8781e643cf9b85f7e6d3199bba310a892e677c6e32f4/tiptop_one.png" /> <img width="1296" height="1728" width_o="1296" height_o="1728" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/7187dd90f436a073e628e6cab421017c9adc4ff8ea0f42c2a8f5908854db3e0e/Screen-Shot-2020-04-27-at-3.11.31-pm.png" data-mid="69180952" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/7187dd90f436a073e628e6cab421017c9adc4ff8ea0f42c2a8f5908854db3e0e/Screen-Shot-2020-04-27-at-3.11.31-pm.png" /> <img width="1302" height="726" width_o="1302" height_o="726" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/72d92c4c78a9a1db528e6ee6aafb23fc432fe758177d4597bd2f1567e47135d1/Screen-Shot-2020-04-27-at-3.11.57-pm.png" data-mid="69180953" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/72d92c4c78a9a1db528e6ee6aafb23fc432fe758177d4597bd2f1567e47135d1/Screen-Shot-2020-04-27-at-3.11.57-pm.png" /> <img width="1752" height="982" width_o="1752" height_o="982" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6470f04921227165caf698a02b1102828490f7052e75567c8114f50bc7c7431b/tiptop_three.png" data-mid="69180960" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/6470f04921227165caf698a02b1102828490f7052e75567c8114f50bc7c7431b/tiptop_three.png" /> <img width="1752" height="982" width_o="1752" height_o="982" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e3496d963f821f678f2415a5211b3e61fbec32e60126385a76217caa9c1aaf61/tiptop_two.png" data-mid="69180961" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e3496d963f821f678f2415a5211b3e61fbec32e60126385a76217caa9c1aaf61/tiptop_two.png" /> <img width="1748" height="850" width_o="1748" height_o="850" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/ff6a4e37e89ff2ade64e7354db31673faf56ee9b20fa42c3b7192651920c482f/ss_one.png" data-mid="69180954" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/ff6a4e37e89ff2ade64e7354db31673faf56ee9b20fa42c3b7192651920c482f/ss_one.png" /> <img width="1752" height="626" width_o="1752" height_o="626" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/44ee9426192138586b995b07cacfb190bf86ee654d5522a1f8a977a5fb4df3f9/ss_two.png" data-mid="69180956" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/44ee9426192138586b995b07cacfb190bf86ee654d5522a1f8a977a5fb4df3f9/ss_two.png" /> <img width="1746" height="1382" width_o="1746" height_o="1382" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b2f536171aec49b3d89df5bf54676e2b31a285dfae57adb2422bd8ba2b072472/ss_three.png" data-mid="69180955" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/b2f536171aec49b3d89df5bf54676e2b31a285dfae57adb2422bd8ba2b072472/ss_three.png" /> <img width="1748" height="1016" width_o="1748" height_o="1016" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/1da6f824c69e35eba482b32951f6120cc1081dd7eba94d791cc9347ced755025/ss.four.png" data-mid="69180958" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/1da6f824c69e35eba482b32951f6120cc1081dd7eba94d791cc9347ced755025/ss.four.png" /> <img width="1750" height="1284" width_o="1750" height_o="1284" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/4ee6dfc5178878ac3e0e12a56bba5d1feaba06d5ad86b1fbab8e7f5afab1bf71/ss.five.png" data-mid="69180957" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/4ee6dfc5178878ac3e0e12a56bba5d1feaba06d5ad86b1fbab8e7f5afab1bf71/ss.five.png" /> https://psonpeel.com.au/Urban-design-planning Thu, 30 Apr 2020 22:53:29 +0000 Planning Studio https://psonpeel.com.au/Urban-design-planning We also assist clients navigate through the design and planning phase of a development project. We emphasise to clients that when we are engaged at the outset of the design process, we are best placed to ensure schemes are functional, marketable and permissable. To achieve this, we undertake a site and precinct analysis to establish the rationale for a design vision. We liaise with a team of consultants to ensure the emerging design is buildable and permissable from a local authority perspective. We then undertake our own design and planning assessment against the existing urban context and character and the relevant protocols of the planning scheme.Opposite/below are images of some of the sites we’re currently working with; a 5000sqm site along the Barwon River, an historic hotel in Clifton Hill, and an old industrial estate shifting to mixed-use in Brunswick. <img width="1024" height="768" width_o="1024" height_o="768" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/44852e6aaa43139dbb3da51644bdd09825f150093ed2a115dcbd4c37c05505ed/ch_two.jpeg" data-mid="69184991" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/44852e6aaa43139dbb3da51644bdd09825f150093ed2a115dcbd4c37c05505ed/ch_two.jpeg" /> <img width="768" height="1024" width_o="768" height_o="1024" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6739b391eae525a1bfed987025f7094cc90fec1d350f5d18764c60c3d885400b/ch_three.jpeg" data-mid="69184992" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/768/i/6739b391eae525a1bfed987025f7094cc90fec1d350f5d18764c60c3d885400b/ch_three.jpeg" /> <img width="1024" height="768" width_o="1024" height_o="768" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/2d42136537188db70c9de7147ddc0b4207d4c0557158551cd2b0cf4ceec90ab2/ch_one.jpeg" data-mid="69184993" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/2d42136537188db70c9de7147ddc0b4207d4c0557158551cd2b0cf4ceec90ab2/ch_one.jpeg" /> <img width="1024" height="768" width_o="1024" height_o="768" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/c3dbcef061a5f81ddcc5ed525eca6beeb070e8a61e43af6a0c9d146ae641431d/brunswick_one.jpeg" data-mid="69184997" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/c3dbcef061a5f81ddcc5ed525eca6beeb070e8a61e43af6a0c9d146ae641431d/brunswick_one.jpeg" /> <img width="1754" height="988" width_o="1754" height_o="988" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/23408f63dc7bdb24bf0ff6ada2ee3793c341c507a9cac1839897bdca72daf933/brunswick_three.png" data-mid="69184996" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/23408f63dc7bdb24bf0ff6ada2ee3793c341c507a9cac1839897bdca72daf933/brunswick_three.png" /> <img width="1024" height="768" width_o="1024" height_o="768" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b334cafcd5f2d287380b53642bc63cd59f0f1fd272aa77d4cc746cf59d5187f1/brunswick_two.jpeg" data-mid="69184995" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/b334cafcd5f2d287380b53642bc63cd59f0f1fd272aa77d4cc746cf59d5187f1/brunswick_two.jpeg" /> <img width="4032" height="3024" width_o="4032" height_o="3024" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/32e905327e48bf105e5f0d89dcad5a4b97df386c09e421d0ce5f407856876e0a/barwon_one.jpeg" data-mid="69185002" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/32e905327e48bf105e5f0d89dcad5a4b97df386c09e421d0ce5f407856876e0a/barwon_one.jpeg" /> <img width="4032" height="3024" width_o="4032" height_o="3024" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/a5d912dfa94c7133314401fea4bc140614f1e789c07c061244ca6d0dc9c1fe92/barwon_two.jpg" data-mid="69184999" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/a5d912dfa94c7133314401fea4bc140614f1e789c07c061244ca6d0dc9c1fe92/barwon_two.jpg" /> <img width="4032" height="3024" width_o="4032" height_o="3024" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/89a4bbd4be40251088970ed27b82706f2adf4588abe539ea5f7048bd9fb8af66/barwon_three.jpeg" data-mid="69185000" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/89a4bbd4be40251088970ed27b82706f2adf4588abe539ea5f7048bd9fb8af66/barwon_three.jpeg" /> https://psonpeel.com.au/Development Thu, 30 Apr 2020 22:53:29 +0000 Planning Studio https://psonpeel.com.au/Development Planning Studio also initiates, curates and stewards residential projects.

We approach projects by locating the social and emergent dimensions of a place to find where a particular community is evolving. From these edges, we assist clients imagine new spatial forms to meet the requirements of those communities, rather than imposing historic spatial forms and structures on them. We believe this approach to design and development activates a wider range of possible outcomes that are commensurate with the needs of the people and the place.
