The project is designed in a phased approach, over five stages, to support the site’s transformation over time and ensure seamless integration into the existing fabric.
The urban layout features a gradual increase in density, moving from the existing suburban fabric toward a more compact project core, connected to the town center and sports facilities. This transition maintains a balance between landscape continuity and urban intensification.
Particular attention is paid to enhancing the banks of the Seymard stream, integrated into a structuring green network that reinforces the site’s environmental quality.
The project as a whole emphasizes a landscape-oriented and residential approach, prioritizing shared spaces, sustainable transportation, and a variety of housing types suited to new ways of living in suburban areas.
