The complex has a rectangular ground plan and is divided into two parts, thus separating the commercial from the residential area. The housing units, placed on the eastern part of the plot, are grouped in six blocks with a south-west / north-east orientation. Vehicular circulation is restricted to the periphery of the site and directed to the underground parking spaces. Pathways connect the residential buildings to the commercial area. The latter is organized around a central courtyard. The yellow brick facing acts as a thermal and sound insulation barrier.
