| Summary: | The urban design workshop "North of Lendavska Street" addressed the extensive area north of downtown Murska Sobota. The area is undergoing intensive transformation. Service and commercial programmes are occupying abandoned industrial and military facilities and filling the empty spaces between. Due to its location near the city centre and its proximity to natural surroundings across the Ledava stream, the area is also attractive for housing and recreation. The existing residential neighbourhood to the south has poor living conditions due to inadequate open space and a badly organised traffic system. The workshop, organised by the Municipality of Murska Sobota, involved groups of students from three Slovene faculties and two groups of practicing architects. The groups proposed designs and strategies for possible future urban development and formed a joint professional platform to prepare spatial planning documents. |
