The study explores the mediating role architecture should play towards the re-integration of degenerate urban spaces, within existing contemporary urban environment. The architecture proposed, in this case a Public Community Information Centre, furthermore intends to find a workable solution, in mediating between society, the city, and the environment that will acknowledge the processes associated with sustainable social production in the quest to eradicate a fragmented, and culturally segregated society. / Dissertation MArch(Prof)--University of Pretoria, 2012. / Architecture / Unrestricted / 2013-4-17
