The jury says: The authors pursue a spatial concept that deviates from the classic approach and instead follows a system of small spaces and courtyards. This fractal urban planning approach consisting of relatively small-scale buildings, which appears to be “scattered around,” blends easily into the surroundings due to its size. The buildings move together at certain points to the minimum distance in order to open up into squares and courtyards on other sides. In doing so, the authors create a spatial tension between narrow and wide.
