Pedestrian Street

Opening context:
Promenade, Shopping Street, Network of Paths and Cars, Market of Many Shops, Building Complex

Conflict

The simple social intercourse created when people rub shoulders in public is one of the most essential kinds of social “glue” in society.

Resolution

Arrange buildings so that they form pedestrian streets with many entrances and open stairs directly from the upper storeys to the street, so that even movement between rooms is outdoors, not just movement between buildings.

Closing context:
Pedestrian Density, Family of Entrances, Open Stairs, Opening to the Street, Arcades
