The low intensity of the Orestad neighbourhood is offset by the introduction of offices and shops on the lower level of a large housing building, precisely in the area which has direct contact with the street. A total of 476 units, for rental or sale, are spread out on the upper levels which have a different typology: one strata of terraced maisonettes, 3 levels of flats and at the top penthouses with large terraces and double height ceilings. The variety of types and the options to access the housing lead to the creation of a very mixed community of residents. In any case, all the dwellings face in two directions and look both out to the countryside and to the common living space inside the courtyards. Furthermore, each strata gives rise to a differentiated residential environment, mitigating the large scale of this intervention.
