Understanding Cities

Method in Urban Design

Beschreibung

For too long urban design has been seen as a subsidiary to architecture and urban planning, sitting somewhere between the two without establishing itself as a field of study in its own right. This book sets out to challenge that assumption and establish a comprehensive framework for restructuring urban design knowledge. Cuthbert builds upon the base of his previous works, Designing Cities and The Form of Cities, in this thought-provoking book.
