Description
The Urban Design Process by Philip Black and Taki Eddin Sonbli is a comprehensive guide to creating effective urban design solutions. It outlines a bespoke process that considers multiple scales within the built environment, from policy and people to strategic framework and technical detail. This book provides a clear overview of the role of urban design in shaping places today, and how designers conceive and deliver contextually responsive designs. It also explores the history of contemporary urban design, tracing its roots in architecture and planning, and identifying key principles and criteria that underpin the discipline. By examining case studies and international examples, this book highlights the importance of urban design in tackling issues connected with climate change, globalisation, and technological advancements, and positively responding to the current and future needs of society.
