Planning tools for development
Ülemiste City is an old industrial estate. In the recent decade, however, it has transformed from an essentially abandoned 20th century factory complex into a service infused smart city. It is now home to hundreds of innovative companies working in modern office towers and refurbished factory buildings. But this is only the beginning. The developer is looking 5, 10 and 15 years into the future.
Ülemiste City has become an innovation hub. It’s busy in the day but lifeless in the evening. It’s a place where people go to work and now the task is to turn it into a living space as well. To do that in a smart way, we set out to develop a framework to understand what people actually want and expect from this city quarter.
