A bold new approach to urban living on Liverpool’s riverside demonstrates how the city can lead the way in the urban design of waterfront cities. The brief given to K2 by the City Council was to generate ideas for a master-plan transforming the site into an internationally recognisable high-quality waterfront community, with strong neighbourhood connections and first-class leisure facilities. The response is a reflection of the city’s emerging status as a European leisure destination. It is bold, confident and ambitious in its expression of character, drawing inspiration from emerging concepts in suburban living from across the globe case and imagines how to integrate them with the community of South Liverpool.
