Bringing together authors from academia and practice, this book
examines spatial planning at different places throughout the
British Isles. Six illustrative case studies of practice examine
which conceptions of space and place have been articulated,
presented and visualized through the production of spatial
strategies. Ranging from a large conurbation (London) to regional
(Yorkshire and Humber) and national levels, the case studies give a
rounded and grounded view of the physical results and the theory
behind them.
While there is widespread support for re-orienting planning towards space and place, there has been little common understanding about what constitutes 'spatial planning', and what conceptions of space and place underpin it. This book addresses these questions and stimulates debate and critical thinking about space and place among academic and professional planners.

This book presents state-of-the-art research and case studies on new approaches to the design, construction and planning of our cities. Emphasis is placed on the role of alternative and renewable energy in the development of urban infrastructures that enable sustainable futures. Reflecting the multi-faceted efforts required to successfully meet sustainability challenges, this book is a collaboration between practitioners and academics across a broad spectrum of specializations. Compelling research findings are explained in the context of practical implementation, enhanced by case studies from industry leaders in order to create a pragmatic reference across policy areas where environmentally aware decision making is required.

Disturbed Home is the first comprehensive survey of the artist's architectural interventions, including photographic and filmic interpretations of those structural works. Highlighting projects of the past twelve years and spanning geographies from Strange's native Australia, to New Zealand, Japan, Poland, and the United States, Strange's provocative transformations of damaged or abandoned homes unlock themes of social upheaval and geographic displacement caused by a variety of factors-economic blight, environmental disaster, and social migrations. Published on the occasion of exhibitions at the 2020 Perth Festival and the 2022 FotoFocus Biennial, Disturbed Home features lucid commentary and original imagery on numerous distinct projects. Also included are scholarly essays by FotoFocus artistic director and curator Kevin Moore and Britt Salvesen, curator and head of the Wallis Annenberg Photography Department and the Prints and Drawings Department at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Essays address Strange's practice within traditions of street art, photography, film, public sculpture, and dance performance.
