public spaces in the HBA, and by not allowing some functions
to dominate. The projects showed that, with design
strategies seeking a balance between the multiple functions
of the public realm, desirable public spaces which
serve in the public interest can be achieved. The general

that the creation of public spaces with a balance in their
multiple roles would also ensure the generation of vital
and viable city centres.
