I came across these sketchup models which I remember creating 2 years ago after reading Jan Gehls "Life Between Buildings" and seeing this drawing.
It shows how the subdivision of residential areas in Scandinavian housing schemes into groups of 15-30 dwellings has been found to work quite well in encouraging social networking. I stating thinking about this and how the rotation of these squares on only creates an interesting visual place but also one good for social interaction. So I started playing with this idea of simply rotating a series of squares along a street to see what kind of place I can up with.
