FACADE PROPOSALS FOR RESIDENTIAL HOUSING DEVELOPMENT | 2021
Between 2018 and 2021, Layout17 simultaneously developed two detailed plans for territories in Mangaļsala. One plan envisioned the construction of row houses, while the other provided for the construction of low-rise apartment buildings and private homes.
The territory designated for apartment buildings and private homes consists of more than 18.7 hectares of forested land. In the middle of this area are two highly protected biotopes of European Union importance, which have been assessed as being of excellent and good quality. For this reason, the detailed plan does not allow for building construction in this part of the territory.
In contrast, the planned street is positioned to avoid affecting existing landforms. In consultation with specialists from LLC Procesu analīzes un izpētes centrs, conditions were defined to mitigate flood risk within the detailed plan area. Concurrently with the development of the detailed plans, a draft design was also created, and a minimum-scope construction project was approved for the planned low-rise apartment buildings and private homes.
