The goal of the project is to break the hierarchy between the city and countryside of Florence, while simultaneously addressing the environmental issues of the region. A radical grid is superimposed on the city as a tool for making decisions based on the differing levels of 'transformability' identified in the drawings. Vulnerable urban areas are displaced to the exterior countryside.
“Do not undertake any new building. The arrangement of civilised buildings is incompatible with the practices of
the New Order. It will be necessary to carry out radical modifications of all your houses if they are to be of any
use. Even so, a great number of them will remain unusable. Let not the owners take alarm a this however, since
the global hierarchy will indemnify them for any damages which arise from the establishment of the New Order.”
