Morphology and urban atmosphere 2016 on Rennes Métropole

Description

This layer of fragmented information on the urban morphology of the territory of Rennes Métropole presents the forms and characteristics of a city (roads, parcel cutting, uses) and the phenomena that are at the origin of it (topography, history, urban planning rules...) identified in 2016. It is a morphological diagnosis based on the analysis of urban forms and free spaces participating in the feeling of the urban atmosphere of a neighborhood. This zoning characterises the urban atmospheres of the territory and feeds the narrative of the development of urbanisation. It allows us to understand the different phases of evolution of the territory presented in the presentation report (tome 3) of the PLUi of Rennes Métropole. These zoning served as support for the development of the zoning of the graphic regulation of the 43 municipalities of the PLUi drawn up in 2016 and approved on 19/12/2019. This data identifies six types of urban atmospheres determined across all 43 municipalities of Rennes Métropole: (1) town centres, city centres and squares; (2) houses and gardens; (3) buildings and surroundings; (4) activity parks; (5) the campaign: (6) historical and landscaped ensembles. (1) town centres, city centres and squares: Original urban core formed of buildings often organised around a structuring public space (church, crossing of ancient roads, square,...). The urban atmosphere of downtown/town centre integrates historical fabrics and new fabrics from more or less recent operations. It may include urban renewal operations or programmes. The main facilities, schools, town hall, media library participate in the role of the city centre/centre-bourg by offering services to the inhabitants. Shops also contribute to the dynamism of the city centre/centre-bourg. The constructions of which some of a heritage character border some old roads starting from the centre or historic hamlets caught up by urbanisation take part in the identity of the town centre/city centre. (2) Houses and gardens: Land division into lots with construction of urban pavilion forms. It is a residential atmosphere very represented in the municipalities. The pavilion offers a simple habitat model of one to two floors for the most part, with the presence of a garden. The lots are juxtaposed with each other with a homogeneous or non-homogeneous composition plan. It is therefore a whole operation of several lots. In addition, land divisions have made it possible to build spontaneous individual houses. The settlements in relation to the tracks are varied with a hindsight and a more or less significant detachment. 3) buildings and surroundings: Plots of large sizes on which one or more buildings of varying shapes and heights are installed. This family qualifies the various collectives present in the districts of the communes (co-ownerships, large ensembles, street collectives with activities on the ground floor, collectives in recent development operations...). These can be implanted in a free space (green or mineral) sometimes according to a plan of internal composition of the plot. This family also covers collectives ordered on the street in the form of very constituted islets. The sports and cultural facilities in the neighborhoods are also spotted in this family due to their location on large open fields (on the neighborhood) more or less vegetable or mineral. (4) activity parks: This family refers to specific spaces built since the 1960s for commercial, industrial, artisanal, service and tertiary activities including various urban forms. These fabrics occupy strategic sites and are separated by their function from other residential urban fabrics. They are structured by a traditional mesh of roads and occupy a large area of land located close to the large infrastructure of the territory. They are often large plots with a more or less important occupation by the buildings, heavily waterproofed with little vegetation. (5) the campaign: The rural part is very represented in the municipalities. It contributes to the landscape diversity of municipalities and their identities. Outside the landscape of bocagers, cereal or maraichère fields, wetlands, etc., the “campaign” family is made up of historic hamlets with their surroundings built along rural roads, various individual constructions (isolated or grouped) resulting from divisions of old agricultural parcels and farms, hangars linked to an agricultural holding. Some old manor buildings, castles with their estates also contribute to the diversity of the landscape of this “campaign”. (6) historical and landscaped ensembles: It is a domain with a historical character of the building and landscape qualities. Concept of overall composition “building + vegetal”. Cemeteries, castles, mansions and mansions with estate, old schools,... are concerned. This family also identifies “enclosed” estates such as barracks, former convents. Homogeneous urban ensembles such as the “garden cities” of Gaston Bardet will be part of this family of “domain” atmosphere.
