Today urban design has emerged as an important area of intellectual pursuit, with applications at many different scales - ranging from the block or street scale to the scale of metropolitan and regional landscapes. The field interfaces with many aspects of contemporary public policy - multiculturalism, economic development, climate change, energy conservation, sustainable development, community livability, and related issues. The Companion to Urban Design includes original contributions from a select group of internationally renowned scholars and practitioners.
