| Abstract |
In this study, architecture design integrated with urban design could be defined as urban-architecture design with a vision for urban
development and locality through a contextual approach beyond a site area at the district and city range level. The Europan competition
works were analyzed where architects proposed space and architectural design on a microscale, medium-scale and macroscale for synergy
effect proposes of a city and its architecture. The following characteristics of contextual factors were selected from the site area, district area
and the whole city area that reflected this design concept. The vision of the urban regeneration project leads from a design direction on the
macroscale to the urban concept on a district scale that must then connect to the architecture project on a microscale. This connection is
made by selecting the major context factor for a design direction from the micro site area. Even if the context factor was selected from
other spatial areas, it could be made when the architectural form and spatial composition are influenced by the selected factors. The green
space and external space as a context factor of a local area and of the site is important for architecture design integrated with urban design
in creating a social place that considers the ecological and environmental factors of a district. In architecture design integrated with urban
design, it is also important to show the continuity of the historical context on the urban scale through the elements in common with the
historical factor selected from the entire city area and its architecture design. This strengthens the identity of the city and gives a symbolic
character to a building. |
