Preferred term
urban design
Definition
- Urban design concerns the physical form of urban space at the scale of a city or a precinct; it may be conceived as the art of shaping cities and their public realm while producing livable urban space. Deriving from this, urban design has to draw together many constituents of placemaking—such as architectural forms, urban landscaping, functions and uses of space, economic viability, social equity, environmental sensitivity and responsibility— into the creation of places of amenities, beauty, and identity.
