Description

Recombinant Urbanism develops the urban-modelling techniques, first pioneered by Lynch, into a comprehensive framework for the fastgrowing discipline of urban design.

Covering the origins of urban design in North America and Europe, it discusses the main approaches that have evolved to deal with the fragmented contemporary city. It also looks at the influence of participatory planning processes, zoning codes, imagery, finance and marketing on urban form.

Providing a sophisticated and potent set of tools for urban designers and urban design students, Recombinant Urbanism also recasts urban modelling as an effective method of augmenting standard architectural design practices in an urban context.
