- phase 1 – 42 dwellings, circa 90-125 m2,
- phase 2 – 14 dwellings, circa 160-250 m2
- dense housing
- small plots
- different house types
- wide range of cost categories
- ‘regular irregularity’
- atmosphere of a cosy, village-like density
- houses were conceived as a series of generic ‘farm-like’ buildings
- limited number of house types
- possibility to select ground floor extensions and roof additions, the spaces between the buildings became complex and varied
- long, diagonal views across private and collective spaces
- building costs EUR 6,800,000
- the requirement for dense housing, small plots, different house types and a wide range of cost categories meant that standard row housing proved insufficient to meet the design challenge
