Week 6: Boards and Presentation

Scott's speech for our presentation;


"Our Sustainable Precinct located in Paddington, 2062. It's time to give a more defined shape to Zero Emissions and a Sustainable Future within Paddington. The Year is 2062, so far the development analysis has been pretty much focused on the technical aspects, such as the elimination of physical shops, due to the ‘virtual shopping’ revolution, retail shops no longer exist. Consumer items are now downloaded online within the comfort of the home, Increasing consumer satisfaction. Another major factor is a Zero Carbon CBD, which has been introduced into Paddington to aid the Brisbane city council in decentralizing the Brisbane CBD.

The consumption of electricity is another contributing factor. We have gone through ideas about the energy generated by different kinds of micro-generation systems,
and how they can benefit the local community and Businesses of Paddington. Although the new aspects of design, technology and energy consumption, are primarily set for the local interests of Paddington, the suburb still brings social and economic benefits to a wider area, such as Milton, Petrie Terrace, Bardon and of course Brisbane CBD. The actual scope of Paddington and its subsequent outcome in the growing future will depend on the number of local communities and the introduction of more Zero-Carbon Companies that will take part in the ever growing and changing Paddington Community.

Since there is no doubt that the local community, local businesses and local authorities will be among the main beneficiaries of the suburb, each group is working together to make Paddington the benchmark for a sustainable future.

Furthermore Vehicular access is also restricted to the suburb with the exception of La Trobe, and Given and Enoggera Terrace for the thoroughfare purposes. Existing suburban roads are now public spaces of engagement and community interaction, as well as being the foundation of the sustainable Paddington Transit link’ and energy generation grid. Even though we have implemented Paddington as the area of development, all the key aspects can be applied to any area with similar characteristics and community and business regeneration needs."
