141218_Qunzii_Terna_Images_01_3. plan of the ideal city 1889

The first large-scale project the SEAO co-operative proposed was called the Ideal City. It was a development of rich complexity for a big urban area in the city centre of Milan. The plan included houses for sale and for rent with services such as dormitories, kindergartens, primary and secondary schools, recreational areas, shared laundries and storage. The settlement would be surrounded by a green area with small plots of private land for urban gardens.
