Introduction
MIXED USE DEVELOPMENT
Mixed-use development is a type of urban development that blends
residential, commercial, cultural, institutional, or industrial uses, where
those functions are physically and functionally integrated.

It is pedestrian-oriented and contains elements of a live-work-play


environment.
It maximizes space usage, has amenities and architectural expression
and tends to mitigate traffic and sprawl.

This definition of a mixed-use development contrasts to a multi-use


development that has two or more land uses on a single site

The live-work-play element is not present and the project is not


pedestrian oriented. A classic example of a multi-use project is a single
site developed with an unanchored strip center next to a small office
building for tenants such as insurance agents, dentists, doctors, etc.

Mixed-use development can take the form of a single building, a city


block, or entire neighborhoods.

Synopsis : Mixed Use Development


History
Traditionally, human settlements have developed in mixed-use patterns.

People lived at very high densities because the amount of space required
for daily living and movement between different activities was determined
by walkability.

The most perfect historical


examples of early mixed-use
development are probably the
medieval villages of the 5th-15th
centuries.
Densely built within towering city
walls, the medieval village is the
perfect example of a functional,
productive community,
incorporating all the rules of
mixed-use development.

In fact, this way of living and structuring society was the norm, even in the
US, up until the early 1900s when development trends and patterns
changed radically with the advent of the trolley and the automobile and the
population in the US was also exploding.

At the time, it began to mandate to create different zones for different


uses or functions for the health and welfare of its citizens.Retail, work,
living, schools, etc were all segregated from each other and from about the
1910s through the 1950s the idea of integrated land uses were rare in new
developments.

Synopsis : Mixed Use Development


History
However, as time went by city planners began to see a plethora of
unanticipated side effects from the new urban sprawl they had created such
as:

increases in vehicle miles


traveled,
energy consumption,
pollution,
loss of resources lands,
inefficient provision of
infrastructure and public
service costs,
central city decline and
many other psychic and
social costs.

And around the late 1970s and 1980s mixed-use developments began to
reemerge.

However, the projects were on a much smaller scale than their


predecessors.

Then towards the end of the 1990s and 2000s, mixed-use developments
began to emerge as manifestations of sustainable design, walkable
urbanism and smart growth initiatives and were considered an essential
ingredient to the creation of Livable Communities.

Synopsis : Mixed Use Development


Role of Mixed Use
Development
Different communities choose mixed use for different reasons. Some see it as an
excellent way to incorporate a mix of housing types on a small scale while
enhancing traditional town character. Others see it primarily as a vehicle for
revitalizing struggling areas and spurring economic development. Still others use it
to create or enhance village centers. Listed below are some of the many benefits of
mixed use development:

Spurs revitalization
Encourages high quality
design by providing both
greater flexibility and more
control
More compact
development, land-use
synergy (e.g. residents
provide customers for retail
which provide amenities for
residents)
Promotes a village-style mix
of retail, restaurants,
DEVELOPMENT
offices, civic uses, and
multi-family housing
Provides more housing
opportunities and choices
May increase affordable
housing opportunities
Promotes pedestrian &
bicycle travel
Reduces auto dependency,
roadway congestion, and air
pollution
Reduced distances between
housing, workplaces, retail
businesses
Encourages economic
investment
Increases revenues
Synopsis : Mixed Use Development
Aims & Objectives of
Mixed Use Development
To create a mix of uses that relate to and complement each other through
site design, for example, through shared use of public spaces and
landscape connections.

To create a mix of uses that respond to their context and complement


each other in their building design and street orientation.

To facilitate linkages among uses on and off site through use of pedestrian,
bicycle and circulation connections, shared access and parking.

To save the unproductive time that is spent in travelling from workplaces


to respective residences and vice versa by developing a habitable mixed
use complex.

To develop a complex that blurs the boundaries of various uses, integrates


greater social interaction among all classes of society.

To have an architecture design approach, responsible and sensitive,


adhering the values of critical regionalism, energy efficiency,
environmental consciousness and social and cultural dependency.

Synopsis : Mixed Use Development


Choosing the topic and its
benefits
One of the basic aim of undertaking this topic as a thesis is to learn the
concepts, internal & physical interrelations & planning ground realities
about the designing of a MULTIFUNCTIONAL HIGH RISE BUILDING.

According to me this topic has a unique concept of incorporating


technological, philosophical, and aesthetic principles to enhance
sustainability within the community.

Also, at this level of my professional degree which is at the edge of


completion, I wanted to take up a project which is beneficial for urban
development & economic growth of a locality in which I work upon as
economy & social awareness are the major causes of interactions now-a-
days.

I wanted to design an ambience for the people to relax & interact with the
view of growth & togetherness.

JUSTIFICATION OF TOPIC SELECTION

Designing this mixed use building will give me an opportunity to study how
different uses can be integrated in a same complex/ building.

How the different uses can be designed in a single building/complex without


overlapping each other.

It will provide an opportunity to study the high rise buildings in detail.


a. The various structure systems involved in a high rise building.
b. The various services required in a high rise building like:
- Parking
- Fire Fighting
-HVAC
- Waste Disposal
- Vertical & Horizontal Circulation

Synopsis : Mixed Use Development


Need of the Project
On a regular basis a common man in NCR spends around 3 to 4 hours in
traveling from his workplace to his residence.
Our main concern is to convert this unproductive time to productive time.
The most practical option is to reduce these distances to bare minimum.
Maximum time can be saved by creating a self-sufficient and self-sustaining
space for living.
This can be achieved for example, by unifying residences, offices, shops,
recreational areas into one habitable unit.
This does not only save time but encourages:
1. Money saving
2. Controlled fuel use
3. Reduction in transportation
4. Pollution control
5. Efficient utilization of resources
6. An increase in the population density per unit area leaves more land for
agriculture & green plantations.
Hence, one ends up saving the nature from degradation without any extra
efforts & in a way ends up going ecofriendly.

JUSTIFICATION OF THE PROJECT

NCR is emerging as a hub of IT companies. MNCs and IT companies are


investing in Delhi & NCR creating a number of job opportunities.
As a result people from different parts of the country & even abroad are
migrating to NCR.
In order to reduce the distances travelled to bare minimum about 98.59
hectares of land has been earmarked for Mixed-Use projects by the Noida
Authority along the several parts of Noida, Greater Noida and the
Expressway, as per Noidas Master Plan 2031.
The demand for property on this stretch is already on rise since the new
settlers in Delhi-NCR prefer Noida-Greater Noida region for the abundance
of property options in every budget range.
This is a good option for investment since the rental yield is higher
Optimum utilization of land is one of the key reasons for the success of
these projects.
Availibility of shopping malls, residences, offices and ultra-luxurious
amenities make them a preferred choice for various developers, investors
and customers who opt for mixed use projects in Delhi-NCR. Also it is a win-
win situation for customers as well as developers.
