Placemaking for Green Urban Regeneration

Placemaking for Green Urban Regeneration by Israa Hanafi Mahmoud
English | EPUB | 2022 | 199 Pages | ISBN : 303115407X | 80.9 MB

This book investigates the dynamics and the role of green urban regeneration using nature-based solutions (NBS) in contributing to the cultural aspects of public spaces. In the first part of the book, insights on analytical methods, planning strategies and shared governance examples are given, as well as, an assessment tool, namely public space index (PSI), is given for successfully measuring sociability impact while using a placemaking approach to green urban regeneration processes. In the second part, the case study (Rose Kennedy Greenway of Boston, MA, USA) has been extensively researched during many years of observations and analysis which gives a realistic taste of the implementation of the proposed PSI. The book’s last part reflects on PSI to measure its adaptability and replicability in other contexts, whereas NBS are playing a major role in physical and spatial green urban regeneration in current cities contexts’.

Urban Design and Planning for Age-Friendly Environments Across Europe: North and South: Developing Healthy and Therapeutic Living Spaces for Local Contexts by Elisa Pozo Menéndez, Ester Higueras García
English | EPUB | 2022 | 480 Pages | ISBN : 3030938743 | 63.4 MB

This book represents a multidisciplinary and international vision across different countries in Europe that are facing similar challenges about ageing and quality of life in present cities. It is divided in three main topics from the global context of health in cities and reduction of health inequities to the current research of different study cases, focusing on residential models and the relationship with the built environment.

Quantitative Research on Street Interface Morphology: Comparison Between Chinese and Western Cities

Quantitative Research on Street Interface Morphology: Comparison Between Chinese and Western Cities by Yu Zhou
English | EPUB(True) | 2022 | 261 Pages | ISBN : 9811925488 | 66.5 MB

This book investigates the historical evolution, regional differences, and quantitative measurement on street interface, which forms the street space and plays a very important role in urban form. Empirical research reveals the street interface in Chinese cities are much more complicated than European and American cities. This book explores the reason and reveals the relationship between street interface and urban form in morphology. By constructing quantitative measurement method on street interface morphology, quantitative parameters can be used in urban planning guidelines in China. Both researchers and students working in architecture, urban design, urban planning and urban studies can benefit from this book.

Experiential Walks for Urban Design: Revealing, Representing, and Activating the Sensory Environment

Experiential Walks for Urban Design: Revealing, Representing, and Activating the Sensory Environment by Barbara E. A. Piga
English | EPUB | 2021 | 333 Pages | ISBN : 3030766934 | 86.2 MB

The edited volume explores the topic of experiential walks, which is the practice of multi- or mono-sensory and in-motion immersion into an urban or natural environment. The act of walking is hence intended as a process of (re-)discovering, reflecting and learning through an embodied experience. Specific attention is devoted to the investigation of the ambiance of places and its dynamic atmospheric perception that contribute to generating the social experience.

Fundamentals of Sustainable Urban Design

Fundamentals of Sustainable Urban Design by Avi Friedman
English | EPUB | 2021 | 314 Pages | ISBN : 3030608646 | 90.2 MB

This book begins with an introduction describing current societal transformations that merit new urban designs, including depletion of non-renewable natural resources, elevated levels of greenhouse gas emissions, large numbers of aging “Baby Boomers,” and climate change. Dr. Friedman then examines these challenges through ten topical chapters of interest to architects, civil and construction engineers, and urban planners.
