  <abstract>There is a strong urge, today, to value urban interventions that optimize financial resources and encourage the sustainable development of cities. For current economic, ecological and logistic reasons, it is important to ask the question: How can we build a city with the minimum? The answer favors the creation of urban acupunctures. This attitude brings to mind Richard Buckminster Fuller’s idea of “doing more with less” and encourages what could be called “urban minimalism”, leaving out everything that is not essential.</abstract>
