Introduction to Residential Layout is ideal for students and
practitioners of urban design, planning, engineering, architecture
and landscape seeking a comprehensive guide to the theory and
practice of designing and laying out residential areas. Mike
Biddulph provides a clear and coherent framework from which he
offers comprehensive practical advice for designers of housing
developments. Referring to a wealth of international examples, this
is a richly illustrated, accessible resource covering the whole
range of issues that should be considered by anyone engaging in the
planning and design of a new residential scheme. A successful
residential development must work on many levels - financial,
social and environmental. This book includes analysis of commercial
viability, the importance of place making, environmental
sustainability and designing accessibility. Mike Biddulph details
successful approaches to designing out crime and maximising
permeability as part of an integrated approach to urban design.
Highly illustrated throughout, this work will show you how to turn
design aspirations and principles into practical design solutions.
Written without preconceptions, Introduction to Residential Design
highlights the strengths and weaknesses of particular design
solutions to encourage both depth of thought and creativity. Mike
Biddulph is Senior Lecturer in Urban Design at Cardiff University
