Maximum on street opening of windows
Cluster plan with inward looking open space
Common road for children with housing facing street provides more eyes
High activity nodes tends to gather more people which is not preferred by children.
Limited access to the surrounding urban environment reduces their reach.

PERMEABILITY
50 M
PERMEABILITY for children can be achieved by providing interactive spaces. Lack of permeability may lead to decline of curiosity and dead end routes which may cause bewilderment

Permeability within built form allows children to interact with the built form.
LEGIBILITY
Permeability within built form allows children to interact with the built form.
Permeability from the primary network to secondary leads to formation of inactive spaces.
Formation of inactive spaces lead to anti-social activities which inuence children.
Edge condition of open spaces doesn’t favor children activties.
No distinct character to built form and narrow lanes turn into dumping yard.
Narrow lanes create enclosure and also fear among children.
OPEN SPACE
LEGIBILITY is how children interact with both physical form and their activity. With high enclosure, no clear node and path develops fear within children cause the space to be unsafe for them.
No clear roadway and blurred edges due to onstreet parking
