Creating a framework for the city of Leeds based upon the theory in ‘Cities for a Small Planet’ by Richard Rogers. A subsequent masterplan looked into the development and application of this theory to the South Bank area of Leeds. The design considers how densification of the city centre through an urban residential neighbourhood and commercial neighbourhood is linked via the proposed HS2 plans for Leeds. Further work then developed the schemes water attenuation plans into a final proposal, connecting the movement and collection of water with the people that occupy the space.
