Every city has its unique and valuable identity, this identity is
revealed through its physical and visual form, it is seen through
the eyes of its residents and users. The city develops over time,
and its identity evolves with it. Reflecting the rapid and constant
changes the city is subjected to, Architecture and Arts, is the
embodiment of the cultural, historical, and economical
characteristics of the city. This conference was dedicated to the
investigation of the different new approaches developed in
Architecture and Contemporary arts. It has focused on the basis of
urban life and identities. This volume provides discussions on the
examples and tendencies in dealing with urban identities as well as
the transformation of cities and urban cultures mentioned in terms
of their form, identity, and their current art. Contemporary art,
when subjected to experiments, continues to be produced in various
directions, to be consumed and to put forward new ideas. Art
continuously renews itself, from new materials to different means
of communication, from interactive works to computer games, from
new approaches to perceptional paradigms and problems of city and
nature of the millennium. This is an Open Access ebook, and can be
found on www.taylorfrancis.com.

This book discusses several topics regarding different
vocabularies, such as sacred architecture, heritage buildings, open
spaces, landmarks, and street escapes, all of which have a direct
influence on the city form. The city form is also affected by the
indirect impact of the citizens themselves, for example their
culture, which in turn depends on the arts, as can be seen and
embodied in morals, paintings, media, digital art, and sculpture.
The book also examines the fundamental elements that are
responsible for the identity of the city. Presenting case studies
that demonstrate the how implementing the concept of the
responsibility of architecture and arts affects the development of
our cities, the book offers a new approach that is based on the
available features of a city and explores how planners and
decision-makers can use these features to address the myriad
problems that our cities are facing.
A volume of five parts, this book is a culmination of selected
research papers from the second version of the international
conferences on Urban Planning & Architectural Design for
sustainable Development (UPADSD) and Urban Transit and Sustainable
Networks (UTSN) of 2017 in Palermo and the first of the Resilient
and Responsible Architecture and Urbanism Conference (RRAU) of 2018
in the Netherlands. This book, not only discusses environmental
challenges of the world today, but also informs the reader of the
new technologies, tools, and approaches used today for successful
planning and development as well as new and upcoming ones. Chapters
of this book provide in-depth debates on fields of environmental
planning and management, transportation planning, renewable energy
generation and sustainable urban land use. It addresses long-term
issues as well as short-term issues of land use and transportation
in different parts of the world in hopes of improving the quality
of life. Topics within this book include: (1) Sustainability and
the Built Environment (2) Urban and Environmental Planning (3)
Sustainable Urban Land Use and Transportation (4) Energy Efficient
Urban Areas & Renewable Energy Generation (5) Quality of Life
& Environmental Management Systems. This book is a useful
source for academics, researchers and practitioners seeking
