Produktinformationen zu „New Urbanism and Beyond: Designing Cities for the Future “
Best defined as the art of shaping the built environment, urban design seeks to understand and analyze the variety of forces-social, economic, cultural, legal, ecological, and aesthetic-that affect how we live. The complex challenges facing cities today-scarcity of resources, growing economic divisions, and rampant sprawl, among others-are forcing a reconsideration of urban design. New Urbanism, a leading movement within urban design, advocates a return to small-town urban forms: human-scale, pedestrian-friendly streets, a reinvigoration of cities, and a stop to suburban sprawl. This new volume, drawing on a conference and debates at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden, comprehensively examines New Urbanism today and speculates about it's future. NEW URBANISM AND BEYOND is both a comprehensive primer on urban design and a provocation for practitioners, historians, and citizens everywhere.
