The good life scenario for Mirmar, Guadalajara, matures ideas of liberalism and moves past an individualistic way of life. Rather than solely focusing on the individualistic right to property, (which creates stale suburbia), the neighborhood emphasises the products of communal activity. Addressing the neighborhood and common good rather than solely the individual and the home, existing underlying social difficulties can be addressed. By integrating homes, shops,and sustainable services within a compact, walkable area, the public realm can become a safe environment that reduces the reliance on vehicles and fosters local economic activity. As these areas are compact the demand on sustainable wind and solar energy is reduced.

Furthermore, creating visually coherent, accessible public spaces that integrate environmental design features such as shading and drainage can help forge an urban identity. A regional neighborhood identity has the potential to align individuals through shared values and common good, creating meaningful agency in a convivial manner. Whilst it is important to create a vibrant and safe neighborhood that looks beyond individualistic ways of living, an individual’s home should use sustainable, locally-sourced materials and energy  to minimize carbon footprints and support regional industries. Furthermore existing built assets and materials are reused and repurposed where safe and possible.
