The main focus is to create a building that is adapted to the needs of the residents, where an environment is created that gives them security and rich visual experiences.

By putting together a balanced rhythm of open and sheltered spaces both inside and outside, public or private that both protect and give pleasure through experiences in a safe neighborhood

The theory behind this is called the "prospect-refuge" theory - an architectural theory where you want to create safe environments to meet people's basic psychological needs. Environments that give people the opportunity to observe without necessarily being seen.

The project will be carried out in solid wood, Breeam Outstanding and zero emission buildings.
