This trailblazing book outlines a tested interdisciplinary "process
model" for urban design. Its goal is not to explain how to design a
specific city precinct or public space, but to describe useful
steps to approach the transformation of urban spaces. "Urban
Ecological Design" illustrates the different stages in which the
process is organized, using theories, techniques, images, and case
studies. The authors believe that environmental concerns demand
that ecological and sustainability issues are addressed in urban
design. It is, after all, the urban designer who helps to
orchestrate human relationships with other living organisms in the
built environment. The overall objective of the book is to
reinforce the role of the urban designer as an honest broker and
promoter of design processes and as an active agent of social
creativity in the production of the public realm.
