EXTRAHOOD takes advantage of the existing site’s synergies by improving their connectivity and stigmatized image, by means of:
1. Landscape Infiltrations: The landscape profits the penetration of new high-speed train line to infiltrate into the city
2. Program Infiltrations: The ‘imported’ meadow is now recolonised by permanent and intermittent programs that rectify its intermediate configuration creating an interlaced space, and making possible new social dynamics.
3. Urban Awareness Densification: Growing dynamics will finish filling soon the soil's capability. Industrial facilities will find new locations and the ‘activityscape’ will be definitively refined. Consolidated urban tissues must strengthen.
4. Technology Seeding: Spontaneous and ephemeral use for punctual facilities. Creation of dynamic urban scenarios.
Free access through pre-payment or deposit loan.
5. New Dwelling Recipies: There are not aprioristic housing schemes, just different kinds of structures to be occupied with different degrees of freedom.
