In tracing the stages of this transformation, this book presents the view that the urban tissue, the intermediate scale between the architecture of buildings and the diagrammatic layouts of town planning, is the essential framework for everyday life. Only by investigating the urban tissue will it be possible to understand the complex relationships between plot and built form, between streets andCity planningPhilosophyCities and townsDesignElectronic books.City planningPhilosophy.Cities and townsDesign.711.501Panerai Philippe33397Castex Jean33398Depaule Jean-Charles33399Samuels Ivor326507MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910457350303321Urban forms2168369UNINA
