Publications

As the project has progressed, a number of excellent publications, booklets and research papers have been developed by the VivaCity2020 team. Here is a selection of useful materials.

FileVivaCity2020 Booklet 2005 (pdf, 1mb)

An eye catching and informative booklet produced in 2005, this publication outlines the eight Sustainability Issues investigated by the VivaCity2020 Project. It is an engaging and useful summary of the areas and research covered by the project.

File VivaCity2020 Booklet 2006 (pdf, 2.75mb)

Published in 2006, this booklet outlines the achievements of the first three years of the VivaCity2020 Project and discusses the intended direction of the project for its remaining two years of development. The booklet discusses the four themes of research covered by the project: the Urban Design Decision-Making Process, Urban Policy, Urban Form and the Urban Experience.

File VivaCity2020 Leaflet (pdf, 0.3mb)

A summary of the project from early on in its incarnation, covering the research approaches and motivations behind VivaCity2020.

File The Urban Design Decision-Making Process (pdf,  1.4mb)

This is a poster about the Urban Design Decision-Making Process. With comprehensive information about all stages of the process, along with an excellent description of all the sections of the VivaCity2020 project as a whole, this poster is invaluable for people wishing to more fully understand the areas investigated by VivaCity2020.
