Using spatial analysis to inform the development of Dubai Hills Estate’s masterplan
Dubai Hills Estate is a 6.8M sqm mixed-use development designed to accommodate approximately 135K residents. On behalf of PenguinCube, we created a set of spatial analysis aimed at defining the strategy for project zoning, neighborhoods, and streets naming, as well as providing advice on the size and connectivity of the different districts.

The spatial analysis of the road network helped identifying different roads identities and their vocation as key areas, local centers, main corridors and residential areas.

Detailed analysis of pedestrian willingness to walk and streets configuration allowed to unlock the true potential for pedestrian movements: 23 local centralities were identified helping in defining the Master Plan neighbourhoods.
