"Living cities are never mono functional - It is the place for people to enjoy the richness of life. Rather than merely delineating the contours of daily routines, architecture and urban design should serve as catalysts, unlocking possibilities and kindling inspiration. In 'BLIJ-DA,' we propose an open and “undefined” built environment which fosters vibrant social interactions and ignites inspiration."
