Hulme is a ward situated within the wider context of Greater Manchester. Hulme's positioning within this context and understanding the relationships it has due to its location drove design influencers throughout the project. Leaf St aims to connect the localities of Hulme into one place to encourage integration through the everyday social realm. This connection strives to not only connect the intricate micro localities within Hulme, but also to identifiy the macro localities within the greater context of where this project is positioned.
