Urban agenda nowadays puts pedestrians as the axis of urban design,
and
pedestrians are the most important thing in the city. The architect takes that idea and applies it in the project,
and
he focuses on prioritiz

the pedestrian over the cars. Public spaces filled with green zones are a main element, water treatment is a design determinant, buildings use natural illumination as much as possible and culture and arts are reinforced through new scenarios.
