On the spontaneous beauty of cities: neither design nor chaos
A clear bridge connecting the theory of spontaneous order and the issue of beauty in and for cities has not yet been developed. After a general exploration of the concept of beauty, this article builds an alternative idea of beauty, namely, beauty as spontaneity. In particular, it argues that beauty in the urban realm greatly depends on forms and orders that can hardly be comprehensively designed but rather emerge as the result of the freedom granted to multiple urban agents to express themselves in space. In this article the works of Jacobs and Romano are analysed and explored. Starting from some of their main ideas, the paper suggests certain planning and design tactics to nurture this kind of beauty and provides some essential ethical principles.
期刊介绍:
URBAN DESIGN International is:
an essential forum for the exchange of information and debate concerning issues of urban design and management
a vital resource for urban designers, architects, planners, landscape architects and developers
an international peer-reviewed publication.
URBAN DESIGN International is the first truly international network for all of those involved in the multi-disciplinary tasks of urban design and management.
In providing a direct forum for the exchange of information and a vehicle for the debate which constantly redefines the scope of urban design, the journal places a primary emphasis on bringing together practice and research. It addresses current issues and aims to make a range of materials accessible to all: from in-depth papers and reviews of projects, to book reviews, comments on previous contributions and a diary of international events. Some issues are themed by topic or geographic region.
The international range of the journal is impressive as witnessed by contributions from all the major continents and an active and extensive editorial structure.
Amongst the issues the journal addresses are:
urban design theory and practice
urban development and management
urban ecology
heritage and local identity
diverse communities of interest
