Form and identity of modern cities, are only possible when there is an economical and social dynamic which later becomes city development, that generates city growth in a continuous and stable way. Taking this into account we have decided to represent Everyville as a discontinuous pattern that mixes up images and logos. The images represent the existing environment surrounding Everyville, unconnected tension points disseminated along the territory, waiting to have a meaning as a whole. Logos represent the existing situation of indifference towards Everyville. It is necessary to find a way to create social complexity along the three “c’s” that define modern and successful cities: Complex, Cohesive and Compact. We shall follow in this respect the lines introduced by JANE JACOBS “Life and Death of Great American Cities”.
