New housing typology The approach of the project is to have less open space but good quality. Reorganization of public spaces, replacing of some functions made room for new developments. New low rise housing will be places in former kindergarten territories, along streets, or in empty lands. New type of housing is necessary to prevent socialist neighbourhood decay. Moreover low rise type, private houses or row houses, are currently most desired in the city. It attracts people to move to suburbs, but now that type will be found within the city, in the revitalized socialist estates. NOTE: It is important to mention that the new neighbourhood density should not increase too much. Currently there are 2,7 persons per household, there is a big housing shortage. In the future the will be less people in the house, it means we will need more homes, more types, but for the same number of people. Moreover, current residents of the neighbourhoods will have the priority to move to new houses.
