Description
Food and Urbanism explores the connections between food and place in urban design practices, from past to present. By incorporating food into city planning, it's possible to create resilient and convivial urban spaces.
The book examines how physical design and socio-spatial practices centred around food can help maintain socially rich, productive, and sustainable urban environments. Examples from around the world illustrate the potential of interplay between design and food systems in shaping the future of cities.
