The area is conceived as an autonomous city district linked with the surrounding buildings. The spatial arrangement follows landscape morphology and refers to its great importance in terms of areal organization. Design intervention uses the principles of founded medieval city, reflecting the memory of space (barracks, medieval road, etc.).

The goal is to create diverse residental environment, including various forms of housing, public spaces and other important spatial components of the city quarter (boulevard, system of squares, intimate places). Newly designed urban structures blend with the landscape. Legible composition of the public spaces is highlited using the systems of urban greenery, water elements and decorative architecture.
