The appropriate level of urban design – global or local – is another critical and emerging question discussed. At the end, an integrative theory of urban design is introduced, on the basis of which a set of principles is developed for application by practicing urban designers. These principles are presented at three essential levels: general, global and local-Iranian. \u003ci\u003eToward an Integrative Theory of Urban Design\u003c\/i\u003e is intended to dispel many of the ambiguities still troubling urban design as a discipline and profession.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2016-05-27\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783319326634\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-319-32665-8\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 254cm x178cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 113\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47692880445580,"sku":"9783319326634","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783319326634.jpg?v=1776699936","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9783319326634","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
