Dubai Hills Estate Spatial Analysis
Dubai Hills Estate is a large mixed use development in Dubai of 6.8 million sqm GFA and 135,000 residents. The project is divided in two parts: a southern part, more urban, of mid-rise buildings for offices, residential apartments and a mall, while on the northern part there is a large golf course surrounded by high-end town-houses / villas.
In this project, spatial analysis helped defining a strategy for project zoning, neighbourhoods and streets naming, as well as providing recommendations on the sizes and connectivity of different districts.
