Description
A new title in the popular 101 Things I Learned series taking on the fundamentals of urban design.
Providing unique, accessible lessons on urban design, this title in the bestselling 101 Things I Learned series is a perfect resource for students, recent graduates, general readers, and even seasoned professionals.
Students of urban design often find themselves lost between books that are either highly academic or overly formulaic, leaving them with few tangible tools to use in their design projects. 101 Things I Learned in Urban Design School fills this void with provocative, practical lessons on urban space, street types, pedestrian experience, managing the design process, and the psychological, social, cultural, and economic ramifications of physical design decisions, and more.
Written by two experienced practitioners and instructors, this informative book will appeal not only to students, but to seasoned professionals, planners, city administrators, and ordinary citizens who wish to better understand their built world.

Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?
The book excels in delivering complex urban design concepts through clear, jargon-free language, making it accessible even for those unfamiliar with the field. It effectively balances technical insight with engaging content, resembling the style of works by Christopher Alexander and creating an experience akin to TED Talk aphorisms or school critiques. The approach serves as a valuable reminder of how straightforward communication can illuminate intricate ideas.
