Urban Experience and Design: Contemporary Perspectives on Improving the Public Realm
Editat de Justin B. Hollander, Ann Sussmanen Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 oct 2020
This collection contains 15 chapters, including contributions from researchers in the US, the UK, the Netherlands, France and Iran. Addressing topics such as the impact of eye-tracking analysis and seeing beauty and empathy within buildings, Urban Experience and Design encourages us to reframe our understanding of design, including the narrative of how modern architecture and planning came to be in the first place.
This volume invites students, academics and scholars to see how cognitive science and biometric findings give us remarkable 21st-century metrics for evaluating and improving designs, even before they are built.

Notă biografică
Justin B. Hollander is a professor of Urban and Environmental Policy and Planning and director of the C.A.G.S in Urban Justice and Sustainability at Tufts University. His research and teaching is in the areas of physical planning, big data, shrinking cities and the intersection between cognitive science and the design of cities. He is the author of seven other books on urban planning and design, including Cognitive Architecture: Designing for How We Respond to the Built Environment (with Ann Sussman) and Urban Social Listening: Potential and Pitfalls for Using Microblogging Data in Studying Cities, and was recently inducted as a fellow of the American Institute of Certified Planners. He hosts the Apple podcast 'Cognitive Urbanism.'
Ann Sussman is a registered architect, researcher and college instructor. Her book, Cognitive Architecture: Designing for How We Respond to the Built Environment (Routledge, 2015), coauthored with Justin B. Hollander, won the Place Research Award from the Environmental Design Research Association (EDRA) in 2016. She currently teaches a new course on perception and the human experience of place, 'Architecture and Cognition,' at the Boston Architectural College (BAC). In 2020, she founded and became president of the nonprofit The Human Architecture + Planning Institute, Inc. (theHapi.org).

Recenzii
"As it happens, we understand very little about how human beings interact emotionally and physiologically with the world around us. This is beginning to change. The collection of essays in this recent book on Urban Experience and Design describes various studies ranging from biometric monitoring to way-finding surveys, providing unique insight into our cognitive processing of environmental stimuli… Taken together these contributions could indeed inform a new paradigm for the design professions."

"Urban Experience and Design: Contemporary Perspectives on Improving the Public can be a useful source for scholars and students looking to introduce the topics of biophilic design and designing healthier buildings and urban spaces. Section I can best serve students as an introduction to urban planning and design concepts and theoretical foundations, as well as point to the future of potential research."

"The editors and authors tell us that architecture and urban design must give people what they want, what they are comfortable with and what evolution has primed them to seek and appreciate. That message is likely to be received with some ambivalence in most schools of environmental design and in many professional associations… the editors and their collaborators rightly tell us that designers and planners stand to benefit from new biometric methods. A better understanding of the human mind, visual perception and user behaviour can only help. In the hands of a skilful designer, it can add to the complexity and contradiction that makes good architecture great."

Urban Experience and Design features essays from the UK, the US, the Netherlands, France, and Iran that examine ways to create better design, health, and community welfare by applying cognitive science and evidence-based metrics to urban planning. Analyzed through the lens of environmental psychology and cognitive studies, the contributors emphasize the significance of user experience, emotional response, space perception, and behavior in environments. Experiments on human experience in the built environment that measure unconscious behavioral responses to stimuli are studied with contemporary eye-tracking analysis, heat maps, and modeling software. The authors comprehensively analyze people's sense of place, attachment, identity with a place, and place makers. Brain research and cognitive analysis validate results. The title includes a commentary on the founders of modernism associating social science understanding with hidden human experience and the unconsciousness storehouse of stressful experiences. Buildings undoubtedly have an emotional impact, and designers are challenged to make human-centered connections with nature and promote well-being. Overall, the title provides evidenced-based studies measuring human responses to urban settings shaping human interactions.

Descriere
Embracing a biological and evolutionary perspective to explain the human experience of place, Urban Experience and Design explores how cognitive science and biometric tools provide an evidence-based foundation for architecture and planning.
