In practice, the values are embodied in four foundational urban and architectural pillars:

The urban structure centred around the Industrial Heritage Walk
The built form: Building heights vary to avoid monotony
The place of nature: 700 trees planted throughout the district
A sustainable and innovative district: geothermal energy, photovoltaics, home automation, etc.

The design of Rout Lëns prioritises a synergy with the surrounding nature, incorporating greenery not only in parks and gardens but also on building rooftops, bringing a green lung to the urban core.

As a protected living environment where cars circulate only underground, children can thrive in safety. Rout Lëns is designed to encourage intergenerational living, with facilities such as a school and a retirement home integrated to foster social interactions.
