Re-viewing cityscapes

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to provide an introduction of an analytical method for aiding urban design, in light of both theoretical and empirical background. The method proposed is based on the attempt to bring the aspects and dimensions of physical form in a tighter relationship with those of urban activities, movements, processes and functions. With an aim to be promoted as a significant design tool, the analytical experiment based on a form of mapping was examined in the context of Ribarsko ostrvo, a peninsula on the Danube river in Novi Sad
