Transforming Övre Husargatan: A Vision for Urban Development through Traffic System Redesign

This project proposes a comprehensive redesign of Övre Husargatan, focusing on transforming the area into a more pedestrian-friendly and vibrant urban space. Key aspects of the redesign include enhancing accessibility for slow traffic, facilitating public transport, prioritizing pedestrians, and integrating sustainable features, such as "Bike Highways" and improved street furniture. The conceptual proposal outlines a cohesive design philosophy that emphasizes the character of the street, logical materiality, and aesthetic lighting, ultimately aimed at reducing vehicular impact and fostering a lively urban environment.
