Peterson tells us why skateboarding boys and girls must be left alone, what terrible fate awaits those who criticize too easily, and why you should always pet a cat when you meet one on the street. Humorous, surprising and informative, Dr. Peterson's answer to this most difficult of questions uniquely combines the hard-won truths of ancient tradition with the stunning revelations of cutting-edge scientific research. What does everyone in the modern world need to know? Renowned psychologist Jordan B. Park, which serves as a catalyst for neighborhood revitalization, and Focal Point Community Campus for inspiration.Publisher: Random House of Canada Illustrated edition (Jan. I like to look to global examples such as the HDR-designed transit-oriented community of Peña Station NEXT, Rodney Cook Sr. Foster impromptu play and incidental connection to ignite conversation and community between people from all walks of life, ultimately forming a sustainable social patchwork.It must be connected to public transport, integrate with nature and be founded on passive environmental design principles to allow for affordable longevity.

Play with height, shapes and forms to anchor or frame views of importance and guide the eye to separate places.Embrace multi-generational living and social initiatives that promote inclusion, diversity, cohesion and wellbeing.Be permeable in that it connects and opens out to champion integration and walkability.I often get asked what the key ingredients are to designing a town center that combats loneliness and creates a healthy and sustainable community, so I thought I’d share some of my go-to architectural design principles.įirstly it needs a town and a center to form the beating heart of civic pride and create a communal gathering space for the community. Like Ed.Square Town Centre, we have designed and delivered an inter-generational neighborhood – for families, for young people and the mature generations – that seamlessly blends public and private domains and enables social cohesion and paradigm-shifting coastal placemaking. Brought together in a holistic urban strategy that creates more than the sum of its components, today the in-shore harbor and its surrounding waterfront precincts encompass the town center which delivers a mix of pedestrian-focused public domain, foreshore dining, kids’ beach, shopping, cafes and parklands for its community. Inspired by Shellharbour’s natural beauty and unique coastal lifestyle, our master planning and design is centered around diversity of built form and materiality to create a contemporary coastal narrative and pedestrian-friendly, memorable heart for the community that is deeply integrated into its local setting. The new town center orients commercial, residential and leisure facilities around the area’s prized assets – its blue heart and the new 270-berth Marina. In another example of wellness-driven architecture, our HDR-designed Shell Cove Town Centre caters to Shellharbour’s burgeoning seaside community.

Most importantly, it’s a collective and authentic ‘home’ for the diverse neighborhood of Edmonson Park.Īt every stage of the design and delivery journey, we challenged our pre-existing assumptions to create a healthier, more connected, and sustainable 6 Star Green Star hub that is the true embodiment of live, work and play – a "third place" that brings inclusiveness, inter-generational care, societal cohesion and diversity to the forefront of design outcomes. The 25,000 m² mixed-use development provides community, retail, leisure and living to one of Australia’s fastest growing populations in South-west Sydney and the town center acts as a wellness-driven urban epicenter for the community.
