Islington Kings Cross: Urban Design Framework

Framework masterplan
Triangle site illustrative masterplan
Concept development
The illustrative masterplan fro the Triangle site was developed
through an iterative cycle of design process following
the strategies set out in the framework. Design from the
‘inside-out’ concept needs and internal building layouts determined
the socio- spatial arrangements. The masterplan being
illustrative, this is not a definite blueprint, but a framework to
guide the development of the site.
The masterplan controls building volume, sets out ideas
about how the site will interface with the environment, development
parcels, where there should be buildings and where
spaces, and the main axes of movement.
A number of images visualise the overall concept for the site
and demonstrate what spaces could become if the masterplan
strategies are followed.
