Conduct a deep research study on spatial patterns for compact settlements that feel calm, private, social and operationally clear.

Context:
Specus Village should not become a row of mobile homes, a campground, a subdivision, or a vague eco-village. It should feel like a compact, walkable, high-trust settlement with private homes, shared commons, productive landscape, hidden service infrastructure and clear movement.

Research spatial patterns for:
- 5-9 home clusters
- 10-20 home micro-villages
- 25-50 home villages
- 50-100 home multi-cluster settlements

Analyze:
1. Cluster layouts.
2. Courtyard models.
3. Central commons.
4. Edge parking.
5. Pedestrian-first paths.
6. Service roads and hidden maintenance zones.
7. Privacy buffers.
8. Child-safe movement.
9. Food landscape integration.
10. Emergency access.
11. Guest vs resident circulation.
12. Quiet zones vs social zones.

Use examples from:
- cohousing
- eco-villages
- retreat resorts
- monasteries / cloisters
- traditional villages
- premium campgrounds
- small resorts
- university retreat centers if relevant

Rules:
- Separate facts from interpretations.
- Provide source links.
- Include confidence levels.
- Do not use megacities as the main object.
- Do not rely only on marketing pages.
- End with "What applies to Specus Village".

Output:
Save / export the result as a Markdown file named:
DR-SV-24_Compact_Settlement_Spatial_Patterns_And_Village_DNA.md

The Markdown file must include:
- executive summary
- pattern language for Specus Village
- scale-specific recommendations
- diagrams described in words
- what to avoid
- source links
- confidence levels
- final recommendations for Specus Village
