With №1, sustainability, the beauty of an island abundant with nature, an energy concept, and a close-knit community are elevated to a new standard. People and nature will soon be able to live together in harmony in the capital, surrounded by water and nature. The plan includes space for 215 homes, both ground-based and apartments. The envisaged program consists of a good mix of 48 mid-priced rental homes, 32 mid-priced units for purchase, and 135 homes in the free sector. There will also be a leading (mobility) neighborhood hub that includes shared facilities programmed for and by the community through participation, which will remain adaptable in the future.
Together with ZUS, an innovative approach has been devised for the landscape to develop and evolve. All inner courtyards will have their own characteristic biotope that suits the island. Together, they form a cohesive landscape. The various biotopes attract different insect and bird populations, enhancing biodiversity in №1.
