Revitalization and Design of the West Bay Community
ABOUT
The West Bay area lost its historical character due to road widening, demolition, and decay. The project included the creation of a design palette of architectural elements and color schemes to bring unity back to the area.
SCOPE
Creation of a design palette for the commercial core.
HIGHLIGHTS
- Using a modern interpretation of the masonry vernacular style, the façade elements were adaptable to each type of structure and relatively cost effective for the property owners to implement over time.
- Outdoor cafes and small green areas were periodically inserted into the blocks to entire pedestrians to linger.
