A housing project is planned for an outskirts area that is occupied by a camping park. An east/west axis defines the main road that connects two existing streets. All houses have access by smaller secondary streets that are perpendicular to this axis. The houses have one floor (mainly closed) at street level, which is a reference to the scale of the surrounding walls, and two levels to the inner courtyard. The courtyards are enclosed by high walls. The houses will be painted gray from the outside, while the courtyards will have other colors. Secondary paths connect to the existing rural roads. The spaces between the houses and the plot limit will be gardened.
