The third year graduate architecture design studio at Georgia Tech has recognized three types of development that face Oxford. Infill development intensifies and redevelops areas in and around the historic town core. Fringe development takes place at the disconnected edge of the existing town.
Outlying development occurs further out in the county on the main arterials leading to Oxford.
One purpose of the following set of projects is to demonstrate how the town code project, Encoding Oxford , can be used as a tool for future development in Oxford. They each set forth a framework in which many different projects or proposals can operate, then illustrate one of the project possibilities for the site. Infill - Train Depot by Kristen Brantley 2.
