Landscape Urbanism and the Building of Sustainable Futures

Simson, Alan / Krajter Ostoić, Silvija

Change is an inherent aspect of human civilisation, and it is rarely comfortable. Cities across the globe are subject to constant change, and no urban area is likely to be immune from the forces that bring this about. Indeed, as the twenty-first century progresses, the nature of our towns and cities is going to have to change far more radically than it currently is, if we want them to be sustainable, create or maintain a healthy setting for people, places and investment, and if they are to retain their rightful role as the nucleus of human culture and as motors for innovation, economy and regional development.
