Urban design

With the idea of urban design and historical representation of Newcastle city, territorial drawings form the principles of my project, in the content of contemporary city. Zoning territories and exploring the city in a variety of medias, representational tools and testing different materials was my way of working. Overlapping maps of Newcastle city from 1788 and 2015 in order to create the proposed network that situated the programmes relevant to this territory. The process was long and hard, the

Arabian cities. Architecturally, it is required a delicate design that reflects this unique character and responds to its requirements. Since the 1970s, Jeddah Corniche development is according to universal style, regardless this special character of public recreational activities. It depended on beautification more than achieving functional areas that absorb the inherited Arabian behavior, which affects negatively the identity in design. The research attempted to measure the identity of the public

Privatizing the Public Sphere The privatization and fragmentation of space in post-industrial urban America is a widespread social problem. As society becomes even more globalized as a result of technological advances, the rampant spread of a privatized public realm is ever-increasing. Public space is needed as a center in which to bring people together to share a common place. It is within public spaces that public life unfolds and without public spaces such as parks, streets, and buildings

2.3 Health index 2.3.1 The WHO quality of life structure The Constitution of the World Health Organization (WHO) defines health as "A state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being not merely the absence of disease". It follows that the measurement of health and the effects of health care must include not only an indication of changes in the frequency and severity of diseases but also an estimation of wellbeing and this can be assessed by measuring the improvement in the quality of life

Plan 749 Urban Planning, Exam 1, Kansas City Design Center September 30, 2016 2 Without order in the public realm the world we live in would be a very unorganized environment. When it comes to order within the public realm we have to thank planning, zoning, transects, and urbanism theories, because these strategies shape our environment as to what it is today. Authors such as Leon Krier, Emily Talen, Cliff Ellis, and Douglas Kelbaugh are theorist who have discussed problems with urban design and provide

Joshua Chia Design Literature review Introduction The topic of this literature review seeks to explore; how can a biophilic approach to blue infrastructure in urban spaces increase the well-being and resilience of a community? A wide range of material was investigated, from published academic articles to books. This review will not cover the topic of climate change, case studies or the essence of well-being itself, it does explore how landscape elements might influence our perception of well-being

our buildings and afterwards they make us. They regulate the course of our lives.” Architecture and design created precisely for controlling and moderating populations is something that has been happening for a while now. Architects and urban planners have recognised the natural capability of design to impact mood, character, and the physical and social properties of people. A prison is a design in which one can observe the dialogue between space and social control. The production of new technologies

A sense of identity as a person in a community, not just some number without a personality, can be nurtured through design. In such spaces, for example, Market Square in Pittsburgh, residents feel connected to other people as opposed to the atmosphere of anonymity that characterizes strip malls with undifferentiated chain stores or an overcrowded space overrun with both street traffic and chain stores, such as Times Square. Pittsburgh is often referred to as one of America’s “most livable” cities
