Aspirational Planning: Grafton Campus

30 years into the future what will the hospital look like? What will be the main access points to the campus and should cars or pedestrians take priority? In what ways can we strengthen links with Auckland Domain? Recently, Architect and AUT Spatial Design HOD Andrew Douglas led a day long workshop exploring options for the Grafton campus site plan. The exercise walked through a number of site analysis visits, researching the history of the hospital campus and sketching and mapping on tracing paper. At the end of the day, the conceptual ideas were proposed to the General Manager of Facilities and Development, to be discussed along side the current Grafton Master plan.

Take a look at few photos from the day:
