Design Brief
While researching about the neighbourhood we found that our area folds into high T2 diabetic zone. We analysed the healthy indicators and found that there is a lack of proper sidewalks and tree canopies. Due to which there is more air pollution these are mostly residential blocks around an rea which could use more open spaces and serviceable blocks. The employment density is very low, so people have to travel for job opportunities quite far. 'in order to crate employment in the area, we can bring more offices, which are at a walkable distance from the neighbourhood. The public spaces are not well maintained, so we are going to introduce activities to bring in people and participate in events which will help in revitalization of the public spaces. We are going to promote healthy eating organize awareness events to educate people about it.
Purpose
Explore possible built form interventions to improve community health including access to green space, air quality, access to healthy food, walkability in the west, north, northeastern and central areas of Mississauga.
