The dissertation investigated community connection to rivers in urban regions and the environmental design of a multi-functional river landscape. It is about the investigation of community connection, use, and appreciation to rivers in urban regions. Worldwide there is constant growth and expansion of urban regions and a rapid increase in urban populations. This leads to a demand for more clean and sustainable water sources in urban regions upon which the people depend and can benefit from. The existing natural water sources in urban regions are further challenged by issues such as water pollution. The restoration, preservation, purification, and sustainable use of rivers are critical to ensure future water services and environmental survival (Art.net, 2018). An area east of Mamelodi next to a tributary of the Pienaars River, Hatherley Spruit, is selected as the site for testing the hypothesis that the natural rivers in our urban regions can be used to provide multi-functional river landscapes along the river for the community to physically and psychological reconnect, use, and appreciate the rivers in urban regions by using the concept of water as the binding factor and regenerative design theory. Throughout the theory and design the approach was to introduce the challenges we face regarding rivers in our urban regions using three different lenses to look at rivers, which are: River as a functional system, river as a resource, and river as place. This led to the design and investigation of an off stream water filter system that addresses a global problem but the progam alongside the off stream water filter system is site and community specific. The theory of regenerative design promotes the inclusion of the community in the design process at different stages and levels of involvement. By means of the three lenses of resource, function and place is viewed as interdependent parts of the design system. These three powerful lenses guide the solutions to the challenges and provoke opportunities regarding the design. mi2025 Architecture ML (Prof) Unrestricted SDG-03: Good health and well-being SDG-06: Clean water and sanitation SDG-11: Sustainable cities and communities SDG-13: Climate action SDG-15: Life on land 2019-01-25T07:19:02Z 2019-01-25T07:19:02Z 2019 2018 Mini Dissertation Smit, E 2018, Regenerative design : a multi-functional river landscape for Mamelodi, ML (Prof) Mini Dissertation, University of Pretoria, Pretoria, viewed yymmdd <http://hdl.handle.net/2263/68279> A2019 http://hdl.handle.net/2263/68279 en © 2018 University of Pretoria.
