A New Yard for Dalmarnock

Gaetano Drago, BA (Year: 3)

A New Yard for Dalmarnock proposes a hybrid domestic-working space that attempts to integrate two different communities in Glasgow (the Show people and the inhabitants of the neighbourhood)through the model of the working yard. Formal and informal housing are juxtaposed and interconnected and work spaces and facilities are provided in order to stimulate the local economy. The new communal yards created by these juxtapositions will be new spaces of leisure, learning and exchange.
