I wonder what our resident Mr. Vienna (aka LiquidCalacaal) will say about these designs
The design team sought to understand housing in similar cultural and climatic environments, before basing their plan on three key principles. firstly, it was essential that the development formed a safe environment for children, with no cars permitted inside. Consequently, this allows the scheme’s narrow streets and squares to become constant places of recreation. Secondly, it was decided that there should be plenty of open space, with public and private areas clearly defined. Finally, the team wanted to integrate natural vegetation, with inhabitants encouraged to take care of their own plants and trees.
he children’s village comprises 15 individual homes
