A New Theory of Urban Design (Urban Process)

With the formulation and publication of A New Theory of Urban Design in 1987, we can observe several new developments in urban criticism and expression. First, there is a continuation from structural analysis to the active development and design of urban space that tries to avoid the limitations of tree-like simplicity in urban design and building design. Second, there is a shift and extension from structure to process and dynamics, which helps to define an appropriate way of making connections. Third, there is a strong inclusion of the age-old understanding of the city as an organic city with an organic process.
