Fragmentation to be able to harmoniously integrate with the small neighbouring buildings, existence of outdoor spaces able to extend small apartments (mostly one or two room housing units), and porosity of the façade able to provide views overlooking the heart of the plot which is laid out as a large garden. Along the façades, each accommodation volume is given an urban autonomy through the use of different materials and finishes.
