Adapt: A New Resilient Living in a Kampala Post-industrial Area

Abstract: This thesis focuses on creating a climate adaptive and resilient neighborhood in and area currently serving as an industrial zone. With growing sprawl in Kampala and limited vacant land within the city Limits, the project focuses on developing inefficiently used areas within the city center and developing them into sustainable mixed function urban communities. This provides densification without the negative effects of urban sprawl and creates an integration of climate change adaptive design into the urban design discourse.
