Description
Urban Design: Reconnecting Theory and Practice in Composition. This book explores the complex process of urban design, where theory meets practice to create meaningful and functional cities. By reconnecting the planning/design process with its outcomes, it puts thinking about design back at the heart of what planners do. With a mix of accessible theory, practical examples, and carefully designed exercises, Urban Design provides students and professionals with tools to think creatively and diverge from conventional solutions. The book identifies key elements and principles of composition, exploring how they relate to the meaning and functionality of cities.
