Planning

Focusing on regions where planners, architects, and artists are involved in concrete initiatives on the ground, War Diaries looks at complex postwar settings to illuminate design responses to urban warfare and violence against the built environment.

This book describes the urban environment in the four cities before World War II, and how the present population handles the memories of the past for future development.

While urban life can be characterized by endeavors to settle stable and safe environments, for many people urban space is rarely stable or safe. As the notion of unsettled appears to define contemporary urban experience, this book investigates the conflicts and possibilities of settling and unsettling through open and speculative analysis.

Aim of this book is, after the definition of the field of investigation concerning sustainable regeneration trough topics such as resilience, adaptation, health and mixed connections, to illustrate the present-day approaches to the analysis and design of healthy places, and in particular the original Healthy Pl@ce Design method.
