Overview

Industry planned with the systems and services that sustain it

This independent visual allocation study explores how roughly 1,300 acres could hold industrial, innovation, infrastructure, service and community-support uses together. It is modelled against a real, publicly announced Kenyan industrial park to test the method at an actual scale and against real constraints.

Challenge

An industrial district is more than production plots. Its workforce depends on movement, utilities, services and civic infrastructure, and those dependencies need to be visible in the allocation logic from the outset rather than added later.

Role

We developed the land-use allocation logic and investor-facing visual communication.

Approach
  1. Group major economic and employment uses
  2. Identify the supporting infrastructure and services each use needs
  3. Build community facilities into the allocation story
  4. Communicate the full programme through one concise visual framework
Outputs
  • Land-allocation framework
  • Use-area schedule
  • Community-support logic
  • Investor-facing infographic
What This Demonstrates
  • Competing industrial, infrastructure, residential and civic uses structured coherently
  • Investor-facing material developed from a raw land-use brief
  • Allocation thinking applied at genuine county and special-economic-zone scale
Where This Applies

Bring this capability to a live brief.

County governments, developers and SEZ authorities need defensible allocation logic when large sites must accommodate competing uses. We make those relationships visible and legible to investors, boards and oversight bodies.
