South Frame Public Realm ChCh
The South Frame Public Realm seeks to enable the creation of an authentic, contemporary and distinctively urban precinct in Christchurch.
Construction is well underway on the Christchurch South Frame which is a city central urban design initiative formulated to contribute to the wider Recovery Plan for the reparation of the Christchurch CBD, following the 2011 earthquakes.
The vision behind the South Frame precinct was to create a sensation of nature within the heart of the city, whilst incorporating an urban neighbourhood that combines health, education, innovation and city living, designed in partnership between Jasmax and LandLAB.
Stretching across five blocks, the project frames the commercial core and various anchor projects in the city’s centre. The project incorporates over 20,000sqm of new pedestrian networks consisting of mid-block laneways and plazas. Promoting a greener and more walkable city, the lanes will provide a shared space for vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians within a slow-speed environment.
