Project Overview
Need a quick run-through? This is the spot.
Initial input /
Meeting with businesses and residents in early January 2020.
Community design workshop /
In collaboration with Crossroads Community Association, we hosted a community design workshop in early February 2020.
Studio work /
We worked as a team to develop a design process that reflected community input and our academic training.
Recognizing local opportunities /
From our design process, we developed an seven-step DIY visioning exercise for Calgary communities.
Rediscover Crossroads /
Using the process we developed, we came up with our own vision for Crossroads.
Diagrams and details /
We used diagrams to explain our big dreams and design rationale for the future of four areas (“hearts”) in Crossroads.
Connective tissue /
We connected our four “hearts” with a connective tissue. We used diagrams to illustrate key elements of the connective tissue cross-section.
Master plan /
Rediscover old pathways, natural areas, neighbours, and lake fun.
