Description
This is a one-stop introductory guide to urban design, taking readers systematically and logically through the many interacting theoretical, policy and practice-based dimensions of the subjects.
The book is written in an accessible format, with self-contrained, yet well cross-referenced sections and chapters.
The authors explain the catalysts of change and renewal, and explore the global and local contexts and processes within which urban design operates. The book presents six key dimensions of urban design theory and practice the social, visual, functional, temporal, morphological and perceptual - allowing it to be dipped into for specific information, or read from cover to cover. This book is for practising urban designers, architects, surveyors and civil engineers, as well as academics in urban design, town and country planning, architecture, surveying, urban studies and urban regeneration, and their students.
