Publisher's Synopsis
Urban design is a process that leads to the physical formation of different urban and rural contexts. Urban design with a structuralize approach creates many places. This process includes the design of buildings, spaces, and landscapes, and finally starts a flow that helps urban development. It deals with urban planning, architecture and landscaping, technical engineering, traffic and transportation engineering, psychology, sociology, and economics, and at the same time, it also connects with politics and culture. So we see that the scope of his activity is very wide. If we accept Manuel Castell's statement that planning is the same as politics, perhaps it is better to define the field of urban activity. According to Jeff Lloyd, urban design is the connecting link of architecture, landscape architecture, and engineering in a broad way and planning, especially urban planning. This theory is still valid today. In the above definitions, we are looking for the essence and concept of urban design, something that is useful in the conditions of our society. Urban design is not a new activity.
