Rebuilding a traditional volume into a threefold content is an efficient additional way of compacting a city.

Splits, deduplications, reforms, superpositions, zippers, hybrid forms, natural light manipulations, new spatialities, are the deviating strategies for achieving an architectural concentrate.

Doubling the density of cities is not filling vacant land or necessarily building higher, but stacking more in one volume.
