Bill Hillier, who is now Professor of Architectural and Urban Morphology at the University of London and Director of the Space Syntax Laboratory at University College London (UCL), is well known for establishing the space syntax approach in the 1970s. Here he explores the origins of the generic city, revealing how the economic and social factors that shape cities manifest themselves in a common pattern of a network of streets, which are further analysed by mapping through movement with the aid of ‘space syntax’.
