The districts – petals as a set of blocks – rectangles. The blocks – rectangles as a hank of houses – courses. The houses – course as a sequence of stays – spaces.
2. Social framework: URBAN USERS. The event of the urban thing is organized from a space which at the same time it adjusts. CROSSED LIFES: The houses colonize the space to look for the maximum contact between houses.
