Research - Urban Planning

An alternative for Future Urban Planning

Adaptive Urban Fabric by Ursula Frick | Thomas Grabner


"The growth of settlements and cities is so tempestuous that a slow process of adaptation is no longer possible. This, therefore, poses the question, whether by means of more adaptable planning theories, processes can be promoted or simulated." -http://www.evolo.us/architecture/adaptive-urban-fabric/#more-20856 Accessed 17/09/2012


"Within these naturally evolving systems, whether biological, chemical, or physical, a base structural principle becomes the foundation for intelligent pattern generation, as seen in the supply systems of leaves, bubbles, foams, or crack patterns."-http://www.evolo.us/architecture/adaptive-urban-fabric/#more-20856 Accessed 17/09/2012



Similar to the set of rules that we suggested in Project 1 this project uses a set of principles to determine the locations and population density of new or existing urban centers.
