The project is approached and illustrated in various scales; from neighborhood scale until the level of the residential entrances. Main aim of the project is to show how a clear territorial structure in a neighborhood scale, enriched by the qualities of diversity of both the urban form and program can increase tolerance among the various ethnic and age groups, cover their needs and finally construct a more liveable environment for them all.
