The demands for housing and urban transformations often call for large-scale projects which are superimposed on an urban tissue that is usually more minute, fragmented by hundreds of years of subdivision of the land into plots. Large homogeneous complexes, principally low-income subsidized housing projects, usually introduce an urban scale that differs widely from the existing buildings. This is why experiments with fragmentation and variation of building complexes, also within the context of unitary projects, have produced efficacious and reproducible solutions. The approach based on the “standardized measure”.
