Road, water and rail junction, Jakarta

Incremental site analysis

 

Location, networks and interesting spaces.

This test site provided me with a number of interesting conditions. Obviously it is a major water, rail and road junction with a large amount of Kampungs located adjacent to these typologies. These communities are established, with there own networks, occupying the total amount of space directly available to them. Yet they have edges that interest me in their potential for continued growth. Are these the available spaces for growth, areas that originally acted as a boundary could be come greater networks for housing and soft transport, tapping into the existing linear nature these typologies. Creating a layered network of potential, for land growth, housing & ecological improvement?
