Variations of the accordion fold led to the development of spatial capabilities that could hold all scales of program. Because the fold has a level of repetitiveness, It is sectioned off and used as individual spatial conditions, thus defined as a module. Aggregation parameters are defined for the module component based on a programmatic study and site conditions. The size of the module doesn’t change, however their arrangement can. Two types of modules are creates, on which is nested in the ground, and the later which rest on top, allowing for operability. An arrangement rule set is developed to negotiates the cross circulation from one module to another. The population of the modules over an extent of land generates a network of connectivity and porosity. The result is a developed community.
