| '''Questions'''
| |
| How does cities and neighbourhood layouts influence on people? What means a good working community? How can they be improved? Is this maybe just a cultural shock? Am I being homesick and therefore focusing on what is missing? Would such an intervention be a pressure of my culture on another? Would residents change their style of living? How does weather influence on a person’s mood, longing to go outside, socialise?

| '''Overview'''
| |
| Each city has a designed floor plan. It usually consists of a city center, and various areas surrounding it. The areas are further divided into smaller neighbourhoods, in which the residents are to be provided with supply options for basic needs, the possibilities of various activities, and interaction and socializing.

|
| Observing the neighborhood in which I live at the moment, there is very little of outside active life. People stick to themselves in their homes and the sense of belonging is quite weak. After half a year of living in a new apartment, I don’t even know what the neighbors living under our apartment look like.
| |
|
| |
| As a conceptual solution, I will take the space in the middle of our U shaped apartment building, where old fences, outdoor storage rooms and secluded gardens currently stand, and redesign it in a common space where people would have a greater opportunity to know each other and just spending time enjoying the nature, thus creating a more pleasant and safer atmosphere.
