| Synopsis: |
A companion volume to "Urban Design: Street and Square", this book focuses on decorating the city - how ornament has been used in the urban scene. It shows how the pattern and distribution of street and square and other major elements in the city can be enhanced by the judicious use of decorative surface treatment and by the careful placing of hard and soft landscape features. Case studies of city decoration are outlined to bring together the ideas discussed and to show how ornament and decoration can be used to emphasize the five components of city form: the path; the node; the edge; the landmark and the district. |
