ANNEMIE VERMEULEN UNIVERSITY OF PRETORIA
“ Fleeting moments and scurried movements are captured by tall walls of concrete and brick , formed on the edges of oversized blocks in the inner city of Pretoria . The wide streets , bustling with traffic , push a myriad of informal activities to the fringes of the streets , forging a tight and contested pedestrian realm ,” comments Vermeuleun in her thesis entitled ‘ Exploring the Potential of Latent Space in the Inner City of Pretoria ’.
A new relationship between the inner-city user , buildings and latent space is created by overlaying urban , architectural , programmatic , technological , heritage and contextual design strategies .
