SYNOPSIS

MIXED USE DEVELOPMENT 

Mixed-use development is a type type of urban urban developm development ent that that blends blends residential, commercial, cultural, institutional, or industrial uses, where those functions are physically and functionally integrated.



It is pedestrian-oriented and contains elements of a live-work-play environment. It maximizes space usage, has amenities and architectural expression and tends to mitigate traffic and sprawl.





This definition of a mixed-use development contrasts to a multi-use development that has two or more land uses on a single site



The live-work-play element is not present and the project is not pedestrian oriented. A classic example of a multi-use project is a single site developed with an unanchored strip center next to a small office building for tenants tenants such as insurance agents, agents, dentists, doctors, doctors, etc.



Mixed-use development can take the form of a single building, a city block, or entire neighborhoods.

Synopsis : Mixed Use Development

 Traditionally,

human settlements have developed in mixed-use patterns.

 People

lived at very high densities because the amount of space required for daily living and movement between different activities was determined by walkability wal kability..

 The

most perfect historical examples of early mixed-use development are probably the medieval villages of the 5th-15th centuries.  Densely built within towering city walls, the medieval village is the perfect example of a functional, productive community, incorporating all the rules of mixed-use development.

 In

fact, this way of living and structuring society was the norm, even in the US, up until the early 1900s when development trends and patterns changed radically with the advent of the trolley and the automobile and the population in the US was also exploding.

 At

the time, it began to mandate to create different “zones” for different uses or functions for the health and welfare of it ’s citizens.Retail, work, living, schools, etc were all segregated from each other and from about the 1910s through the 1950s the idea of integrated land uses were rare in new developments.


 However,

as time went by city planners began to see a plethora of unanticipated side effects from the new urban sprawl they had created such as: increases in vehicle miles traveled, energy consumption, pollution, loss of resources lands, inefficient inefficient provision of infrastructure and public service costs, central city decline and many other psychic and social costs.

 And

around the late 1970s and 1980s mixed-use developments began to reemerge.

 However,

the projects were on a much smaller scale than their predecessors.

 Then

towards the end of the 1990s and 2000s, mixed-use developments began to emerge as manifestations of sustainable design, walkable urbanism and “smart growth” initiatives and were considered an essential ingredient to the creation of “Livable Communities.”


Different communities choose mixed use for different reasons. Some see it as an excellent way to incorporate a mix of housing types on a small scale while enhancing traditional town character. Others see it primarily as a vehicle for revitalizing struggling areas and spurring economic development. Still others use it to create or enhance village centers. Listed below are some of the many benefits of mixed use development:  





   



 

Spurs revitalization Encourages high quality design by providing both greater flexibility and more control More compact development, land-use synergy (e.g. residents provide customers for retail which provide amenities for residents) Promotes a village-style mix of retail, restaurants, offices, civic uses, and multi-family housing Provides more housing opportunities and choices May increase affordable housing opportunities Promotes pedestrian & bicycle travel Reduces auto dependency, dependency, roadway congestion, and air pollution Reduced distances between housing, workplaces, retail businesses Encourages economic investment Increases revenues


DEVELOPMENT



To create a mix of uses that relate to and complement each other through site design, for example, through shared use of public spaces and landscape connections.



To create a mix of uses that respond to their context and complement each other in their building design and street orientation.



To facilitate linkages among uses on and off site through use of pedestrian, bicycle and circulation connections, shared access and parking.



To save the unproductive time that is spent in travelling from workplaces to respective residences and vice versa by developing a habitable mixed use complex.



To develop a complex that blurs the boundaries of various uses, integrates greater social interaction among all classes of society.



To have an architecture design approach, responsible and sensitive, adhering the values of critical regionalism, energy efficiency, environmental consciousness and social and cultural dependency.




One of the basic aim of undertaking this topic as a thesis is to learn the concepts, internal & physical interrelations & planning ground realities about the designing of a MULTIFUNCTIONAL MULTIFUNCTIONAL HIGH RISE BUILDING.



According According to me this topic has a unique unique concept of incorporating incorporating technological, philosophical, and aesthetic principles to enhance sustainability within the community.



Also, at this level of my professional degree which is at the edge of completion, I wanted to take up a project which is beneficial for urban development & economic growth of a locality in which I work upon as economy & social awareness are the major causes of interactions now-adays.



I wanted to design an ambience for the people to relax & interact with the view of growth & togetherness.

JUSTIFICATION OF TOPIC SELECTION 

Designing this mixed use building will give me an opportunity to study how different uses can be integrated in a same complex/ building.



How the different uses can be designed in a single building/complex without overlapping each other.



It will provide an opportunity to study the high rise buildings in detail. a. The various structure systems involved in a high rise building. b. The various services required in a high rise building like: - Parki arking ng - Fire Fire Fightin Fighting g -HVAC - Waste aste Disposa Disposall - Vertical & Horizontal Horizontal Circulation Circulation




On a regular basis a common man in NCR spends around 3 to 4 hours in traveling from his workplace to his residence.  Our main concern is to convert this unproductive time to productive time.  The most practical option is to reduce these distances to bare minimum.  Maximum time can be saved by creating a self-sufficient and self-sustaining space for living.  This can be achieved for example, by unifying residences, offices, shops, recreational areas into one habitable unit.  This does not only save time but encourages: 1. Money saving 2. Controlled fuel use 3. Reduction in transportation 4. Pollution control 5. Efficient utilization of resources 6. An increase in the population density per unit area leaves more land for agriculture & green plantations. Hence, one ends up saving the nature from degradation without any extra efforts & in a way ends up going ecofriendly.

JUSTIFICATION OF THE PROJECT   



  

NCR is emerging as a hub of IT companies. MNCs and IT companies are investing in Delhi & NCR creating a number of job opportunities. As a result people from different parts of the country & even abroad are migrating to NCR. In order to reduce the distances travelled to bare minimum about 98.59 hectares of land has been earmarked for Mixed-Use projects by the Noida Authority along the several parts of Noida, Greater Noida and the Expressway, Expressway, as per Noida ’s Master Plan 2031. The demand for property on this stretch is already on rise since the new settlers in Delhi-NCR prefer Noida-Greater Noida region for the abundance of property options in every budget range. This is a good option for investment since the rental yield is higher Optimum utilization of land is one of the key reasons for the success of these projects. Availibility Availibility of shopping malls, residences, residences, offices and and ultra-luxurious amenities make them a preferred choice for various developers, investors and customers customers who opt for mixed use projects projects in Delhi-NCR. Also it is a winwin situation for customers as well as developers.
