Introductory Study for looking into the Characteristics of Urban Design |
| Abstract |
This study is aimed to look into the characteristics of urban design itself, and to propose a preliminary step for the development of curriculum and taught courses about urban design.This is the third one in a series of papers on same subject as above; Previous papers have dealt with a prospect and eumination of the progress in conceptualization of urban design and a philological analysis in accordance with the progress in conceptualization. The followings would be the corroborative evidence by made-up question study in and abroad and some case studies about the nature, scope, and implementation skills on urban design.There is a widely held view that the concept of urban design over the last three decades have failed to produce a satisfactory concord for improving urban environment. The institutes and educators have emphasized their own intentions rather than general perceptions, and also examined their personal interests.We therefore, must get to an agreement that the urban design has to be a multidisciplinary part of the fields and professions for the reconstruction of the qualities of the urban environment. |
