Diverse Neighborhood Design Case Study

As there is no universal answer that would fit in all of the local neighborhood. However, from our exploration in the research case study. With our optimal attempt, this figure is our endeavor on the Diverse Neighborhood Design Principle to extract and cluster the key factors as well as to conjugate the relating factor for the expedient implementation in other area.

In order to achieve the “customary diversity encounter” in urban neighborhood area, there are mainly 6 indispensable elements that we need in the local community. Firstly, the basic needs that must be fulfilled including affordable connection (i.e. public transport, well connected pedestrian way), access to diverse choice of housing; from low to high price, several tenure options,
Preferable if the neighborhood could be developed in a mixed use (residential& retail, education & commercial) manner it could help solving these issues in-one-go. And while this needs are specifically important, it is generally for individual integration. For preferable integration in the whole community context, the spaces for interaction would be the major stimulator. These spaces will be different according to the socio-cultural aspect, believes, environment factors; climate, topography, availability of free spaces. Nevertheless, there are also diversified spaces from various cases that we found similar to each other. The spaces we are referring to consist of free/ safe/ open public spaces; from tiny pocket garden to massive urban park, from publicly own to semi-private open spaces, multi-purpose area to more-specific-function that we already proofed to be statistically significant in their impact on immigrant number of native friends. In addition, we also recommend that cultural spaces, for instance religion building, art gallery, ethnic shop/ grocery are the
Moreover, we do not claim that the result of the diverse neighborhood design principle will be able to cover all of the different kind of neighborhoods in AEC. But with more time and larger group of sampling, we could project the essential factor of DNDP, by understanding what kind of immigrant (i.e. country of origin, income range, family type) can effect particular needs for housing, services, local association/ activity, etc. which in our research we could find certain patterns. For instance, migrants from the country of Myanmar, Lao, Cambodia tends to prefer to live in more-affordable type of housing (in particular flat/ apartment) and the main activity they love to do in public open space are more inner group activities. As per the people from USA, they are likely to rent a single house or townhouse type of housing, they also incline to interact more with other social/ ethnic groups and do more active activity such as sport. Thus, the majority of them demand more bicycle mode of transportation. On the other hand, this setting left us with numerous issues that oppose to existing study about neighborhood diversity and immigrant integration. For the
