Creating great places : evidence-based urban design for health and wellbeing
Why Evidence-based Urban Design? -- Affordance Theory -- Prospect-Refuge Theory -- Personal Space Theory -- Sense of Place Theory/Genius Loci -- Place Attachment Theory -- Biophilic Design Theory -- Salutogenic Design -- Child-Friendly Design -- Age-Friendly Inclusive Design -- Sustainable Design -- Conclusion: Creating Great Places Through Theory-storming.
"This book provides a bold vision and roadmap for creating great places. Imagining and designing urban environments where all people thrive is an extraordinary task, and in this compelling narrative, Cushing and Miller remind us that theory is a powerful starting point. Drawing on international research, illustrated case studies, personal experiences, as well as fascinating examples from history and pop culture, this practical book provides the reader with inspiration, guidance and tools. The first section outlines six critical theories for contemporary urban design - affordance, prospect-refuge, personal space, sense of place/genius loci, place attachment, and biophilic design. The second section, using their innovative 'theory-storming' process, demonstrates how designers can create great places that are inclusive, sustainable, and salutogenic. Creating Great Places is an insightful, compelling, and evidence-based resource for readers who want to design urban environments that inspire, excite, and positively transform people's lives"--
