| dc.description.abstract | Thinking about and practising sustainable urban design should take a step further: from sustainable urban design to sustainable spatial development. An attractive approach towards planning and urban design aims to improve spatial systems effectively within their spatial and societal context. This paper explains this next step using observations of society, literature and lessons learnt from four case studies2, as well as mainstream development processes in the Netherlands. Although the case study projects are sometimes more than 10 years old and are situated in a specific Dutch societal and spatial context, they provide interesting, even up to date, insights for the planning of sustainable and durable cities. First we look at why a renewed approach to sustainable urban design is both necessary and rewarding. We then turn to this renewed approach and how to put it into practice. Possibilities for the design of sustainable and durable cities are illustrated by the descriptions of the cases in this paper. | |
