Abstract

The place where you live is a part of your life. The perception of the living environment partly determines the perception of overall life. This graduation project tries to contribute to a better urban living environment and therefore to a better urban life. The key solution to this is urban green. The graduation project can be split in three parts. The first part of the graduation project is an overview of the benefits of urban green. This theoretical part is based on a literature study. The second part of the graduation project focuses on the design: an urban regeneration. This practical part is based on the results of the process of research by design. The location is set by two pre-war neighbourhoods in Utrecht Noordwest: Elinkwijk and Zuilen. The third part of the graduation project puts the urban design in a wider perspective. The design solutions can be used in other situations.<br />Urban Regeneration<br />Urbanism<br />Architecture
