Swedish Typo-Morphology - Morphological Conceptualizations and Implication for Urban Design

“…As generalist model, Spacematrix model has been widely accepted in morphological research and used to analyze urban elements e.g. lots (Bobkova, et al, 2019a;2019b). Todor Stojanovski used the Swedish urban typologies proposed by Carl-Johan Engström and Johan Rådberg to analyze the effect of urban form as neighborhood type on travel (Stojanovski, 2018).…”

“…Todor Stojanovski used the Swedish urban typologies proposed by Carl-Johan Engström and Johan Rådberg to analyze the effect of urban form as neighborhood type on travel (Stojanovski, 2018). He used the typology as background for future transformation of Swedish cities (Stojanovski, 2012;2019a) together with a typology of public transportation systems 2019b).…”

The impact of the built environment on creativity in public spaces of Dutch university campuses and science parks

“…The distances between the locations of urban functions and physical features at campuses are a major determinant of peoples' perceived affordances in public spaces. Studies have shown that such linear distances have to be 'short enough' so that human figures become individuals and that it is possible to notice the person's sex, approximate age and activities (Gehl 2011); this can consequently enhance close neighbourly interactions (Canter 1977;Talen and Shah 2007;Stojanovski 2020). Gehl and Svarre (2013) state that human sight allows the detection of peoples' movement at a distance of 100 meters; however, to interact socially and determine details much shorter distances are needed.…”

Which Fabric/Scale Is Better for Transit-Oriented Urban Design: Case Studies in a Developing Country

“…Although previous studies already attempted to make use of urban design elements on walking within the station areas in part [11,12,15,[28][29][30][31][32], there was little consideration paid to the characteristics of transformed urban forms, as well as the contribution of various design qualities, with regard to the TOD principles, while cities are confronted with a variety of urban fabrics, and TOD-specific design guides are not on the agenda. Additionally, one single scale (often neighbourhood and occasionally streetscape) was previously addressed-mostly based on the context of the developed world-while the study of the TOD walkability merits multiscale attention.…”
