Urban design and planning is created upon the social, environmental, political, aesthetic and economic importance of design in the public realm, serving the public interest. It focuses on the intersections between architecture, landscape architecture, planning and geography. The design of urban places explores two strongly related fields of environmental practice: urban design as the shaping of urban space and urban planning as the strategic and regulatory mediation of urban change. This book highlights some of these problems and discusses possible solutions in terms of urban, planning and management.
