Description:
Urban design--understood as a transdisciplinary field at the intersection of architecture, urban and regional planning, landscape architecture and sociology, plus the stakeholders involved in any project--requires a compendium of methods to collapse boundaries between theory and praxis. This book collects a range of approaches intended to support urban designers with this aim.
Review Quotes:
"[...] the book is a pleasure to dip into to gain a rapid understanding of the approaches, particularly for those seeking to move beyond their comfort zone and try something new. The book is a place to start and a source of inspiration." (Matthew Carmona in Urban Design)
