- Most of the built environment is constructed following a few physical building patterns that occur over and over, or types. Planners, consciously and unconsciously, refer to building types as they work through urban design problems and regulation. Brenda Scheer's Typology is the first comprehensive guide to form-based typology and a basic guide for all planners and designers concerned with the physical configuration of the city. This book provides a fundamental understanding of how the physical environment is created, changed, and transformed through ordinary processes over time. Suitable for professional planners, urban designers, and students, it includes practical examples of how typology is used in analytical, urban design, and regulatory situations. -- Product Description.
