When shaped, urban spaces play a vital future role in determining the way that people interact with the space and communicate with each other’s. The course will build fundamental skills to undertaking a wide variety of urban design efforts, including for example: design of public places, shaping neighborhood form and function, and incorporating natural systems into the urban fabric. It aims to provide methods of viewing the various layers of the landscape, observing the urban concept and study the relationship between the City planning and design with its architecture. |

The students who have succeeded in this course; 1. Comprehending and analyzing the relationship between architecture, the city as well as and urban space. 2. Discovering the urban dynamics, structures and processes that construct the built environment. 3. Being able to read and analyze various urban layers and transform them into a network of topological relations as a design input. 4. Discussing the range of physical attributes entailed in achieving good urban design: built form, public space, landscape, path and access systems, parking, density, activity location and intensity and so on. 5. Defining and design exterior and public space in its environment. 6. Discussing the social, historical and other processes that shape the urban space. |
| This course introduces the development and the organizational planning in the city, plus the concepts and theories of Urban Design. It explores the elements, structure and tools needed for analyzing and evaluating urban space, it also surveys the social, cultural, economic and environmental aspects of Urban Design theories and implementation. |
