Empty lots inside the town have an important meaning: uncontrolled, not belonging to anyone they can acquire endless functions as spaces for playing, sports, temporary festivals, wild and domestic animals, urban agriculture, etc. Our current city-spaces are too defined and leave no use for everyday creativity.
BOTTOM-UP RULES FOR CONSTRUCTION
In Everyville, the laboratory for pluralistic construction city structure can form freely according to some simple rules:
1. Each zone is under construction once every 5 years
2. Max. lot size 1000 m2
3. 1 lot/1 actor
4. 50 % of the lot parameter usable
5. 6 hrs of sunlight/day for 50 % of the neighboring lots
LUNGS OF THE CITY
Top-down bureaucracy has a friendly interface in the parks that are formed around public buildings. As the rest of Everyville gradually evolves into a dense, eventful urban tissue, these islands offer the inhabitants institutionalised, taken-care of spaces of high architecture and landscape.
