3 Title Introduction to Urban Design (Revised Edition)

Author [America] Bacon Edmund N Bacon, with his excellent graphic comprehensive ability, links historical examples with modern urban planning principles. He vividly explained how great architects and planners in the past influenced the later development and passed it on from generation to generation. Bacon also introduced the historical background of urban design, telling us the basic design forces that determine the form of a great city and the problems that should be paid attention to. Among them, the most interesting is probably the synchronous motion system-that is, the path of walking and car traffic, public and private traffic. Bacon took this as the leading organizational force and investigated the urban sports systems in London, Rome and new york. Like architectural entities, he also emphasized the importance of public space in urban design, and discussed the influence of space, color and perspective on urban residents. Taking the design examples of Rotterdam and Stockholm as examples, it shows that urban centers should and can become places where people can live, work and relax happily.

8 Introduction to the Aesthetic Content of Title Street

The author (Japan) Lu believes that the article takes the creation of street visual order as the starting point of architectural plane layout form design, and discusses the visual order law in architectural plane layout form design from the simple to the deep from the natural characteristics, aesthetic laws and humanistic characteristics of streets. There are different opinions on modern western architectural theories, among which there are many insights, but the researchers of these theories may not all have practical experience in architectural creation, so it is difficult to guide design practice. Luyuan Yixin's "Street Aesthetics" and "Continuing Street Aesthetics" swept away the above disadvantages. The author integrates many contemporary architectural theories and rich knowledge into an easy-to-understand and fluent writing style, which is popular but not shallow. Moreover, the author applies these theories to his own architectural creation and expounds them through a large number of his own works, so it is theoretical but not divorced from reality. I think this is the biggest feature of this book.

This book focuses on some functions that attract people to the city, and extends from these functions to the space and buildings that meet their requirements.

Traditional city guides, even many standard city history, often only answer the first two questions and ignore the third.
