Seeing Streetscapes as Social Infrastructure: A Paradigmatic Case Study of Hornsbergs Strand, Stockholm [PDF]

Urban Planning, 2022
Urban streets are an integral part of the public realm. Streets are commonly planned following normative design principles focused on the connectivity of road networks and urban morphology.

THE EFFECT OF CULTURE-SPECIFIC DIFFERENCES IN URBAN STREETSCAPES ON THE INFERENCE ACCURACY OF DEEP LEARNING MODELS [PDF]

ISPRS Annals of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2022
Owing to the increasing focus on places in urban planning and design, methods to evaluate the quality and value of urban places is crucially needed. Many studies use deep learning models to identify the proportion and composition of landscape elements in

Sustainable Streetscapes: Design Approaches and Examples of Viennese Practice

Sustainability, 2022
Streets are ubiquitous and cater to various functions in a city. However, today most streets are unilaterally used and designed likewise. Car-centred spatial distribution is currently being questioned in the course of urban densification and in light of ...

Designing Urban Streetscapes in the Climate Crisis: A Design-Driven Framework for Nature-Based Urban Regeneration

Sustainability
The climate crisis exposes the inadequacy of modern urban paradigms grounded in the separation between nature and built form. In response, this paper reframes streetscapes as architectural and urban spaces where ecological performance and spatial composition are conceived as mutually constitutive.

Biophilic Design in Streetscapes: Improving Urban Livability and Pedestrian Experience

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science
Abstract As urban development increasingly prioritizes “sustainable livability,” biophilic design (BD)—which enhances the connection between humans and nature—has garnered growing attention. This study examines Taichung City, widely regarded as the most livable city in Taiwan, to analyze biophilic elements and design strategies in ...

Situating spatial determinism in urban design and planning for sustainable walkability: a simulation of street morphology and pedestrian behaviour

Discover Sustainability
Streets and roads have been constantly identified as key spaces to improve walkability and—by extension—the entire urban environment. Such improvements lie on planning and design theories that are often supported by qualitative evidence and as such, tend

The impact of small-scale green infrastructure on the affective wellbeing associated with urban sites

Scientific Reports, 2023
The largest public space in any city is its streets. Investments which incorporate small-scale green infrastructure into streetscapes can bring more nature into the lives of urban residents worldwide, including those living in even the most economically ...
