4.9/5 (14728 ratings)

Description:The Prince's Foundation for the Built Environment is proud to present Garden Cities: Theory & Practice of Agrarian Urbanism by renowned US urbanist Andrés Duany, the fifth in its series of Senior Fellow Books. This book details a type of community plan and management that enables a comprehensive interaction of agriculture with modern society. Agrarian Urbanism may not be for everyone, but it is one of the more beneficial methods to develop and dwell on the land. Because of its mitigating effect on climate change, a neo-agrarian way of life should be made available to as many as possible. If the food-growing machine that is the traditional village were reorganized, it could be made viable again. Historically, most villages were based on food production and distribution as the principal economic and social activity, but today most agricultural landscapes adjacent to towns are valued for additional reasons and protected by government policy to keep them economically viable. As the outline of the 21st century becomes clear, villages are again emerging as practical and desirable. But they will proliferate only if their design and management is handled in a thoroughly modern way to make the lifestyle appealing to more people. Andrés Duany, F.A.I.A, R.I.C.S is an architect whose work focuses on town and country planning. He and his wife, Elizabeth Plater-Zyberk, founded their practice in 1980. More than 200 of their plans are in the process of implementation, several in the United Kingdom. They were founding members of the Congress for the New Urbanism.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
