Reflecting History It was here on this site by the river’s edge that shipyard plans were made into a reality. The Mould Loft was a place where the white outlines and measurements of hundreds of plates were drawn out on a vast black floor. A combination of complex geometry and judging by eye made the Mould Loft fundamental to the success of every ship built. The Loftsmen were geometrists and exacting, they had to be, it was their scale which ruled everyone else’s actions and led to a perfect ship. Similarly, The Loft Lines is a precise plan for a new way of living. Urban community proposed for Queen’s Island, Titanic Quarter, Belfast.
Reflecting History At The Loft Lines, the past meets the Marker present. In naming the buildings after the unsung creative and technical The Loftsmen worked on their knees, using skills of those who worked in Harland & complex geometry to draw out full scale Wolff’s Mould Loft, we are celebrating chalk marks on the enormous black floor. the quiet confidence of the best These marks were precise and perfect and, of Belfast. “God help anyone who stood on the lines!” Fairing Framer The Loftsmen had their own vocabulary Using the chalk marks as a guide, they built and their own authority. They kept timber frames over the top. These timber everyone, including the most visible ship frames were then transported into the rest designers right. They were precise in their of the yard and used as guides for use of geometry but also had an aesthetic cutting steels. eye. A verb came out of the Mould Loft, ’to fair’ which meant to correct a designer’s line - to make it more physically pleasing. Urban community proposed for Queen’s Island, Titanic Quarter, Belfast.

Urban community proposed for Queen’s Island, Titanic Quarter, Belfast.Planning History The original Titanic Quarter masterplan and Masterplan Key Principles Proposed Plots previous planning permission envisaged the site as two development plots adjacent to a public square. However, the larger of the two plots prevent access to the riverfront from the square. We have retained the plan for a 1 acre public park (South Yard Square), but have improved access to the water by creating a wide public boulevard by splitting the larger plot in two.

Design consideration include;
Concept Development
• Define building edge
• Route/Linkage
• Public Realm
• Stepped massing
• Orientation
• Private Amenity
• Quality of environment
• Daylight/Sunlight
A number of the key considerations have informed the proposed
scale and massing of The Loft Lines three buildings.
These have been established through the existing Masterplan,
and are informed by extant and expired planning approvals on or
neighbouring the site, in addition to the historical, existing and
emerging context and policy. These key considerations include:

planting, grass lawns and paths. Hamilton Dock Hotel, with Titanic Belfast
just a short walk away.

others to stop and relax.River Promenade
Access to the waterfront is a key component of this project.
The proposals include a new 12m wide 1km long waterfront
promenade and a safe, shared pedestrian and cycleway running
along the quayside. Wide enough to be enjoyed for recreational
walking, running and outdoor dining, a controlled service route will
ensure the emphasis is placed on pedestrians and cyclists so that
everyone can enjoy the riverside environment.
The promenade will link the site and the wider area around
Titanic Quarter, helping to create a more accessible location

Urban community proposed for Queen’s Island, Titanic Quarter, Belfast.Supporting the City’s Green Ambition The Belfast Agenda has set a target of a 15% increase in the use of sustainable transport by 2035. Through the promotion of sustainable modes of travel and restricted car parking provision The Loft Lines is assisting with the delivery of the objectives of the Belfast Agenda. The Belfast Resilience Strategy (published December 2020) makes a number of references to sustainable development, designed to ensure Belfast’s future resilience is dependent on its transition to a low carbon economy. This will only be possible with a material shift in the balance of its travel choices away from cars and towards sustainable public transport, walking and cycling as advocated by our proposals for The Loft Lines. Urban community proposed for Queen’s Island, Titanic Quarter, Belfast.
ACTIVE FRONTAGES
Celebrating Cycling BIKE STORAGE
We want to celebrate cycling. The Loft Lines will be the first scheme
in Belfast to offer active frontage bike storage with wash down and
repair facilities, and also offer covered external bike storage for
anyone visiting.
Accessing the Titanic Quarter by Belfast Bike has become
extremely popular in recent years. Queen’s Island currently benefits
from three Belfast Bike docking stations.
There are currently cycle lanes provided along both sides of
Queen’s Road. These on-road routes connect onto the shared
footway / cycleway at the traffic signal controlled junction at
Queen’s Road, and Belfast Met junction.
Residents and visitors of the development will be able to travel using
the existing extensive cycling network that connects the Queen’s
Island site to the wider cycle network (National Cycling Network).
