The appropriate level of urban design – global or local – is another critical and emerging question discussed. At the end, an integrative theory of urban design is introduced, on the basis of which a set of principles is developed for application by practicing urban designers. These principles are presented at three essential levels: general, global and local-Iranian. Toward an Integrative Theory of Urban Design is intended to dispel many of the ambiguities still troubling urban design as a discipline and profession.University of Tehran Science and Humanities Series,2367-1092Urban geographyArchitectureBuildingStructural analysis (Engineering)Urban Geography / Urbanism (inc. megacities, cities, towns)https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J15010Architecture, generalhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/K0000XBuilding Construction and Designhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T23012Urban geography.Architecture.Building.Structural analysis (Engineering)Urban Geography / Urbanism (inc. megacities, cities, towns).Architecture, general.Building Construction and Design.307.1201Bahrainy Hosseinauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1060290Bakhtiar Amenehauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910254120003321Toward an Integrative Theory of Urban Design2512291UNINA
