This graduation project searches for a framework for regeneration that integrates several core themes to bring about more social interaction in a post-war neighborhood like Moerwijk while at the same time densifying it. The result of the research is a constructed pattern language. The pattern language forms the basis of the framework for regeneration. These different research methods aim at finding spatial conditions for strengthening social interaction at the neighborhood level. The practical implications of the pattern language are ultimately tested in local design.
