Recenzii
“This wonderfully illustrated book holds many lessons for urban designers….Applied Urban Design is an answer to the cri de coeur for a flexible, contextually responsive people-centred design approach that helps to create the quality of life we might want. It could take on the mantle of the Urban Design Compendium, that some 25 years ago set out how urban designers could demonstrate positive thinking. In this time of change, it is sorely needed. It should be sent to every council in the country to read, learn and inwardly digest - and to the Government as it struggles to deal with housing.”
Jon Rowland, architect and urban designer, review for Urban Design
"Applied Urban Design: A Contextually Responsive Approach presents a carefully structured and clearly written contribution to contemporary urban design scholarship. Building on previous academic discourse and professional practice experience by the authors, this exemplary new book positions itself as both a pedagogical and professional resource, offering a cohesive framework for understanding how context—spatial, cultural, historical, and environmental—can shape the design and delivery of urban form....In contrast to approaches that more overtly frame design and research as interconnected, this book’s explicit intention to define the vocational identity of the field makes it a strong contemporary resource for educators and students focusing on the specifics of practical design skills and complex iterative interconnected processes....[This book] stands as both an unequivocally strong design guidebook and a thoughtful provocation on how the question of a global, pluriversal urban design professional might offer a different, and wider, perspective on contemporary practice."
