Place Value Ashfield is a project by the UWA School of Design and Future West (Australian Urbanism) that explores the potentials of a coordinated approach to infill housing in the Perth suburb of Ashfield.
From the outset, Place Value Ashfield asked multidisciplinary design teams to consider infill housing as part of the broader site context in Ashfield, with each team allocated one of six dispersed groups of sites across the suburb.
Schemes were guided by an overarching landscape framework between rail and river, with the aim of demonstrating how housing regeneration can respond to existing values of place.
