Описание: Ecological Urbanism: The Nature of the City asks the questions that are important inside and outside the built environment professions: what are climate change, urbanisation and ecology doing to the theory and practice of urban design? How does Ecological Urbanism figure in this change? What is Ecological Urbanism? In answer, this book is neither definitive – impossible when a subject is still in motion – nor encyclopaedic – equally impossible when so much has been written on almost every aspect of these essays. Instead, it seeks to rebalance the ecological narrative and its embryonic modes of practice with the narratives of urbanism and its older, deeply embedded modes of practice. It examines the implications for cities and the designers of cities now we are required to again address their metabolic as well as social and formal dimensions, and it explores the extent to which environmental engineering and natural systems design can and should become drivers for the remaking of cities in the 21st century. Above all, it argues that sooner rather than later, urbanism needs to become environmentally literate, and environmental design needs to become culturally literate.

Описание: This volume brings a plurality of approaches -- from political economic to Foucauldian -- to bear on the broad range of contestations around urban neoliberalism. The contributors explore the range of resistant agency and reveal the heterogeneity of intersecting power relations that movements mobilize against.

Описание: Typological UrbanismProjective Cities Guest-edited by Christopher CM Lee and Sam Jacoby How can architecture today be simultaneously relevant to its urban context and at the very forefront of design? For a decade or so, iconic architecture has been fuelled by the market economy and consumers' insatiable appetite for the novel and the different. The relentless speed and scale of urbanisation, with its ruptured, decentralised and fast-changing context, though, demands a rethink of the role of the designer and the function of architecture. This title of 2 confronts and questions the profession's and academia's current inability to confidently and comprehensively describe, conceptualise, theorise and ultimately project new ideas for architecture in relation to the city. In so doing, it provides a potent alternative for projective cities: Typological Urbanism. This pursues and develops the strategies of typological reasoning in order to re-engage architecture with the city in both a critical and speculative manner. Architecture and urbanism are no longer seen as separate domains, or subservient to each other, but as synthesising disciplines and processes that allow an integrating and controlling effect on both the city and its built environment.

Описание: How can we transform and future-proof the post-industrial city through strategies of architectural and urban design? The answer is to use an energy-efficient, zero-carbon model based on renewable energy sources and building typologies. This book presents different models for sustainable urban growth, based on the principles of `Green Urbanism`.
Описание: Considered from the perspective of sustainability, water in the urban environment must be approached as a single resource that can be continuously reused and recycled. This book is the first to capture all of the current work on this idea in a single, integrated, plan for designing the water-centric cities of the future.
Описание: Incomplete Urbanism is a dynamic, hybrid interactive concept, which destabilizes the architectural and urban theories and practices. Its main characteristics are indeterminacy, inconsistency and changeability, which are particularly challenging in the context of the New World Order and the global digital network. This book deals with this topic.

Описание:
This volume argues that the city cannot be captured by any one mode of analysis but instead is composed of the mobile, relational, efficient, sentient, and the phenomenological with all of them cast in new theoretical configurations and combined into one methodological entity. Rather than focusing on any one city or abstract analytical model, this book instead takes a multipronged theoretical and methodological approach to present the city as an intelligent affective organism - a sentient being.
It proposes that cities operate on a relational, mobile, and phenomenological basis through the mode of efficiency, calibrated by a profoundly complicated division of labour. Its starting point is that the city is a mobile unit of analysis, from its economic status to its demographic makeup, from its cultural configuration to its environmental conditions, and therefore easily evades our quantitative and qualitative methods of computation and comprehension.
Twenty First Century Urbanism provides planning and urban design academics and students with a multifaceted approach to understanding the development of cities, encouraging the examination of cities through a myriad, non-linear approach.

Описание:
Child-centered Urbanism explores the relationship between children and the city, focusing on how the two are interrelated and how the relationship directly effects achieving sustainable objectives. This relationship between children and the city is manifested in 'children -centered urbanism'. An often overlooked population in cities, Child-Centered Urbanism addresses growing social concerns of child welfare in urbanised areas; how children grow up in the community as individuals, how city and environment affects health and growth, and how the city and the environment are learning tools. A series of contrasting international case studies demonstrates the effects of children engaging with planning in unique urban conditions in cities throughout the world, including Aberdeen, Scotland; Dhaka, Bangladesh; Madrid, Spain; and Kathmandu, Nepal.
Advocating for children as stakeholders in the planning and community participation process, this book proposes a unique step-by-step tool for engaging children in the urban development that has a significant impact on their lives. Through the innovative SUV(c) (Stitching Urban Vision) tool, practitioners and students of planning and urban design will walk through strategies to incorporate children in planning.
With more than 90 images, chapter summaries, and a do-it-yourself lesson for workshops, Child-centered Urbanism offers a much-needed solution to the issue of community engagement methods while incorporating sustainability initiatives and the lives of children in urban spaces.
