Determine residential, office, commercial, schools and leisure space for the
chosen population based on the typical population distribution of the country.
Design of individual apartments and eventually draw buildings of various shapes
with the following considerations:
Maximise population within a small area
Maximise green spaces
Provide adequate natural lighting (light concentrators on top of buildings)
Easy access to facilities (commercial, office, services)
Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each type and shape of apartment and
building considered.
Safety aspects within the town
General safety aspects with respect to fire outbursts considered
Drawing of town layout with road network
Discussion of transport facilities to be provided and on the limits set to motor
vehicular traffic within the town.
