- Description
- This treatise is a redevelopment of the role of the railway station on in the Noupoort because of the reduced industry and resulting economic influence it had on the town. The project developed from an interest in the rural community and it aims to revitalise and integrate the town. Using observations made from site visits and available literature an investigation on was conducted to understand the context and the community. It was found that there is a need for community functions and economic growth. Through urban integration in the centre of the town, community facilities along with skills training can be developed in order to facilitate trade with tourist through the railway connection. As a result a community and tourist facility are designed this connects to the railway and forms an urban link within the town.
