Description
- The residential neighbourhood is designed for organic growth and slow development, integrating new residential typologies into an existing vernacular countryside settlement.
- The plan ensures that clusters of 30-250 homes are connected by a network of roads, avenues, and paths, allowing for gradual growth and flexibility in development.
- The design prioritizes the maintenance of the agrarian landscape, with various cluster densities to accommodate new development while allowing existing pastoral land to remain cultivated.
- Newly reclaimed land will feature more adaptable housing typologies, whereas older, existing tracts will have minimal development, retaining the rural character of the area.
- Three main residential typologies are introduced:
- Farmyard typology: Small clusters of 2-8 homes around shared yards.
- Courtyard typology: Homes arranged around a central courtyard with winding streets.
- Monastery-type: Large enclaves of up to 150 homes with a shared garden, reminiscent of local monastery layouts.
- The plan retains significant poplar vegetation and uses rows of trees to demarcate clusters, preserving the natural landscape and defining residential areas.
- A rainwater management system incorporating bioswales and existing ditches will handle stormwater onsite, supporting environmental sustainability.
- Recreational spaces are integrated into the greenery, with parks and a fitness trail open to the public.
- Located close to a town with access to public transport.
