ABSTRACT
The urban design was also developed in a team spirit. It has become a residential area that demonstrates a remarkable coherence among the various architects each responsible for a part of the whole. The urban design shows a variety of recognizable and characteristic urban spaces: streets, small water channels, canals, avenues and squares. One architects designs were not kept together to make a homogeneous neighborhood designed by a single architect. Windows and doors in facades had to be in wood with the same off-white color, while the window and door details were standardized. The variation takes place on three levels: The public spaces (urban design level), the collective use of the shared building types (Base Building design level) and the buyer options (at the Infill level). Clustered construction is located in characteristic places along Stationssingel and Oudelandselaan.
