دانلود کتاب Identity by design

"In a world of increasing globalisation, where one high street becomes interchangeable with the next, Identity by Design addresses the idea of place-making and the concept of identity, looking at how these things can be considered as an integral part of the design process. Structured around a series of case studies including Prague, Mexico, Malaysia and Boston, the authors discuss an array of design approaches to explain and define these complex and inter-related concepts. The concluding sections of the book suggest ideas for practical application in future design processes." "With full colour images throughout, this book takes the discussion of place-identity to the next level, and will be valuable for all architects, urban designers, planners and landscape architects."--BOOK JACKET.
