The Form of Public Space
The guiding idea behind the project is presented as a set of urban planning principles designed to ensure the high quality of public spaces. The proposed urban rules, dened by building lines, allow for the exible shaping of buildings over the extended timeline of the investment’s implementation without compromising the spatial values established in the project’s initial assumptions. Streets, avenues, boulevards, plazas, and scenic openings/closures are classical elements of urban composition that form the building blocks of our concept.

The proposed green public space – a “green spine” – shapes the identity of the location on a citywide scale. The multi-layered nature of the space, diverse perspectives, and attractive, surprising views aim to make the proposed residential estate visually engaging for its future users. The characteristic design of the public space also derives from the search for appropriately scaled “neighborhood units,” fostering a sense of identity for residents with their part of the estate.

Greenery and the City
The achievable building density denes the project as situated between an urban and suburban zone. The design seeks to merge these two atmospheres by creating zones of intensive development around plazas and streets, alongside areas that provide future residents with close contact with nature. The diversity of atmospheres, access to services, and greenery offered by the project are the key factors in ensuring a high quality of life in this part of the city.

Structure
The estate’s structure consists of six neighborhood units interconnected by greenery. Within these units, building lines are dened to guide the development of buildings in various typologies. This competition entry presents only an example layout of buildings, designed to highlight the values derived from access to greenery.

Spaces
The project’s core idea is the creation of public spaces and their continuity, anchored in access to greenery.
The proposed spaces include:

1. Public – landscaped and unlandscaped greenery linking the individual neighborhood units.
2. Semi-Public – urban spaces such as plazas and streets within the neighborhood units.
3. Semi-Private – spaces within residential blocks or quarters.
4. Private – residential areas, including apartment gardens and front yards for groundoor units.

Identity
Each of the six neighborhood units is distinguished by its unique shape and characteristic public spaces. Additionally, the architecture, landscaping, and design of semi-public spaces can further foster a sense of identity within the neighborhood communities.

Greenery
For public greenery, we propose allocating functions based on the activities of various social and age groups, adapting to different ways of spending free time. The greenery surrounding the watercourse serves as a calm recreational area, while other parts of the park offer zones for sports, culture, nature, markets, and seniors, effectively connecting the individual neighborhood units into a cohesive urban organism.

Services
Service functions will play a crucial role in shaping the urban character of the neighborhood units. Commercial service areas will be concentrated around plazas and along selected streets of particular signicance, ensuring accessibility for non-residents.
