Description

Description

OMA's Mangalem 21 is a residential masterplan occupying a steep site in eastern Tirana, Albania, characterized by a 27-meter elevation change. The project features a rhythmic and vibrant sequence of buildings and courtyards arranged in a checkerboard layout that balances urban density with green, communal space. The ground level is pedestrian-only with underground parking, freeing 70% of the surface for public plazas, gardens, and circulation. The design introduces porosity and variation through new architectural typologies and a curated color palette, aiming to establish a new model of urban living integrating high density with visual diversity and open space.
