"The project focuses on the idea of breaking existing limits of the territorial site - limits that have been defined over the years, provoking a change in “metabolism” of the area. The idea is indeed to re-activate the site offering quality public spaces for the residential neighborhood (considered troubling nowadays). That means transforming the entire island of the strategic site into multiple smaller-in-size islands. The spaces in-between will then increase the permeability and overcome both social and economical boundaries that have been."
