The conclusions were that most of them respond to a system based on general and spontaneous rules rather than governmental imposed and restrictive ones. The urban proposal integrates the system of the ´kiloblock´: by exploiting the urban possibilities of one square kilometre block, the design aspire to provide the necessary rules for a free city to work.
