Urban design and the sense of the City

Abstract

What exactly means the term ‘the sense of the city’? How can we answer this question precisely if we are not sure what a city is? Is it an accident on a map or form of art? Is it a symbol of culture or symbol of power? We could multiply questions but there is no simple answer. But we are professionals and people living around are waiting for our reasoning; therefore, we have to verify visible trends in the 21st century city that apply to all, both new and old, approaches to city planning. Ultimately, we have to try to build the model of the City of Harmonious Development meaning.
