Growing Compact: Urban Form, Density and Sustainability explores
and unravels the phenomena, links and benefits between density,
compactness and the sustainability of cities. It looks at the
socio-climatic implications of density and takes a more holistic
approach to sustainable urbanism by understanding the correlations
between the social, economic and environmental dimensions of the
city, and the challenges and opportunities with density. The book
presents contributions from internationally well-known scholars,
thinkers and practitioners whose theoretical and practical works
address city planning, urban and architectural design for density
and sustainability at various levels, including challenges in
building resilience against climate change and natural disasters,
capacity and integration for growth and adaptability, ageing,
community and security, vegetation, food production, compact
resource systems and regeneration.
