Plan of the design. The subject of the competition was to design a new route for a main business axis through the medina (old centre) of Tunis (Tunesia).
Friedman proposed a ‘Spatial Champs Elysées’, a bridge-town over the city centre so demolitions would be necessary. The ‘perforations’ of the project would correspond with the existing courtyards.
The project would ensure the conservation of the medina while extending it at the same time.

The Tunis project was the use of the idea of the ‘space-chain’. The Tunis space-chain is a cubic one, but I experimented also a number of other geometric grids. View of suburbs
