"Problem:
Every #town has places in it which are so central and desirable that at least 30-50 #households per acre will be living there. But the apartment houses which reach this density are almost all impersonal....
Solution:
To build more than 30 dwellings per net acre, or to build housing three or four stories high, build a hill of houses. Build them to form stepped #terraces, sloping toward the south, served by a great central open stair which also faces south and leads toward a common garden" Christopher Alexander A Pattern Language #patternlanguage #christopheralexander
