Abstract
The project is concerned with the district of Zuidoost, currently inhabited by mostly non-western immigrants and functioning as a sleeping district. As the area is missing defined local public space, the project aims to provide with space in which people of different backgrounds can meet and interact with each other, and therefore enable to form a local community. In order for such space to be successful in the 2100, times in which people would spend a lot of their free time in the virtual reality, it needs to utilize true qualities of the physical space and smartly develop its attractiveness.
