COMPLEXING POPULATION - DESIGN BACKGROUND

STUDIES OF DENSIFICATION

CONCEPT OF DENSITY

BUILT FLOOR AREA OF PROPERTYDEGREE, BUILT DOWN AREA

MAINLY USED IN SUBURBAN DEVELOPMENT MAINLY USED IN URBAN DEVELOPMENT

500 METRES, 5 MINUTE WALK

WHY DENSITY

MAKES EVERYDAY LIFE HEALTHIER AND MORE SUSTAINABLE

BAD DENSITY

DAMAGING THE LOCAL CLIMATE OF THE AREA

DAMAGING THE BODY MOVES OF THE AREA

DAMAGING THE SOCIAL CLIMATE OF THE AREA

GOOD DENSITY

ENHANCES THE LOCAL CLIMATE OF THE AREA

ENHANCES THE BODY MOVES OF THE AREA

ENHANCES THE SOCIAL CLIMATE OF THE AREA

HOW TO MAKE DENSITY GOOD

PLAN IN A REGIONAL CONTEXT, POLYCENTRIC URBAN AREA

PLAN WITH REDUCED NEED OF TRANSPORT AND VEHICLE MOVEMENTS

PLAN WITH THE NEIGHBOURHOOD INVOLVED AND CHANGE INCREMENTALLY

VARIATIONS ON SPATIAL DENSITY

DENSITY COULD BE INTENSIFYING

DENSITY COULD BE ENCLOSING

DENSITY COULD BE CONNECTING
