Type: Residential District | Scope: Master planning, Architecture
The lower level accommodates public and service functions, including pedestrian routes, looped access roads for electric vehicles, bicycle paths, and landscaped internal boulevards with planting, small architectural elements, and playgrounds. The upper plane forms a continuous green surface that defines the living environment, where each dwelling extends into terraces, gardens, and outdoor areas. This approach allows social infrastructure, technical spaces, and non-residential programs to be absorbed into the terrain, increasing the amount of usable green space and improving overall spatial quality.
The base is constructed in reinforced concrete and accommodates the entrance, auxiliary rooms, technical areas, and a garage for an electric vehicle, along with a continuous service corridor that consolidates all building systems and simplifies maintenance. Above, the main living spaces are organized within a lightweight modular frame, with direct access to private outdoor areas. Four housing typologies are developed, each incorporating double-height interiors. A combination of wood, stone, plaster, and façade panels creates variation across the development while maintaining a consistent architectural identity.
