The overall goal of this thesis project was to explore principles of sustainable development
through planning and design. A 60-hectare site was chosen in Surrey, where two different
community plans were designed based on the proposed Clayton general land use plan. The first
community plan was based on typical or status quo development principles. The second
community plan was based on alternative or sustainable principles of development as described
in the East Clayton Neighbourhood Concept Plan. These two plans were then compared using
nine different economic, ecological and social parameters. Further detailed design was then
done for two areas on the alternative community plan; Stormwater Park, an integrated park and
school site, and the Community Garden. Typical residential and commercial streets were also
illustrated in detail.
