Life in the city is popular and creating liveable urban space is
undoubtedly a priority for planners. Yet what makes a city worth living
in? How do we define sustainable neighbourhoods that will function
properly and continue to attract people in the future? What does Smart
City or resilience really mean?
The completely revised, new edition of this publication provides the
answers. It addresses the fundamental challenges of urban planning today
and offers planners essential knowledge, implementation strategies and
ways toward holistic concept development. Examples of international
neighbourhood developments clearly show how aspects of sustainable urban
planning can be implemented in practice.
