Well-grounded in the history and theory of Anglo-American urbanism,
this illustrated textbook sets out objectives, policies and design
principles for planning new communities and redeveloping existing
urban neighborhoods. Drawing from their extensive experience, the
authors explain how better plans (and consequently better places)
can be created by applying the three-dimensional principles of
urban design and physical place-making to planning problems. Design
First uses case studies from the authors' own professional projects
to demonstrate how theory can be turned into effective practice,
using concepts of traditional urban form to resolve contemporary
planning and design issues in American communities. The book is
aimed at architects, planners, developers, planning commissioners,
elected officials and citizens -- and, importantly, students of
architecture and planning -- with the objective of reintegrating
three-dimensional design firmly back into planning practice.
