A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Throughout history, contemplation on the city, its shapes, its time, and its rhythm has led to an abundant source of proposals and commitments. This chapter navigates the temporal and spatial intricacies of urban life, exploring how city structures influence and are influenced by human rhythms and cultural narratives. Drawing from the Andean worldview of Sumak Kawsay , it explores harmonious coexistence within urban realms. The Japanese concept of Sei‐katsu‐sha brings forth a holistic view of citizens in their urban context, emphasizing their roles as active life participants. In addressing urban development, the chapter juxtaposes the contrasting visions of Jane Jacobs and Robert Moses, shedding light on the enduring tension between organic neighborhood growth and planned urban expansion. It unravels the transformative essence of neighborhoods, and underscores the profound role they play in anchoring our collective sense of place amid the evolving urban world.
