Square shaped village of nine hundred low and
middle income dwellings in North Dakar. The forms are inspired in the cubical
nature of the towns built on the desert. Streets follow an orthogonal plan
articulated with two diagonals that cut through to the central plaza, providing
clear orientation. Horizontal strips of two and three storey modular housing
provide development flexibility while offering a unified design vocabulary. All
housing units are cross-ventilated, with balconies and interior patios.
