Cities’ Vocabularies: The Influences and Formations de Nabil Mohareb

Cities’ Vocabularies: The Influences and Formations: Advances in Science, Technology & Innovation

Editat de Nabil Mohareb, Antonella Versaci, Yasser Mahgoub, Sreetheran Maruthaveeran, Francesco Alberti
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 24 ian 2021
This book discusses several topics regarding different vocabularies, such as sacred architecture, heritage buildings, open spaces, landmarks, and street escapes, all of which have a direct influence on the city form. The city form is also affected by the indirect impact of the citizens themselves, for example their culture, which in turn depends on the arts, as can be seen and embodied in morals, paintings, media, digital art, and sculpture. The book also examines the fundamental elements that are responsible for the identity of the city. 

Presenting case studies that demonstrate the how implementing the concept of the responsibility of architecture and arts affects the development of our cities, the book offers a new approach that is based on the available features of a city and explores how planners and decision-makers can use these features to address the myriad problems that our cities are facing.
