Kevyn introduced a concept of planning that was the base for understanding and visualising The Planning Aspects; important for the budding planners.
The presentation initiates the same understanding and invokes a means for better understanding of 'Planning'.
Frank Lloyd Wright (June 8, 1867 – April 9, 1959) was an American architect, designer, writer, and educator. He designed more than 1,000 structures over a creative period of 70 years.
Wrightt believed in designing in harmony with humanity and its environment, a philosophy he called organic architecture.
This philosophy was best exemplified by Fallingwater (1935), which has been called the best all-time work of American architecture. As a founder of organic architecture, Wright played a key role in the architectural movements of the twentieth century, influencing three generations of architects worldwide through his works.
There is a train station and a few office and apartment buildings in Broadacre City. All important transport is done by automobile, and the pedestrian can exist safely only within the confines of the one-acre (0.40-hectare) plots where most of the population dwells.

An Introduction on Case Studies in UrbanismRoberto Rocco
Everything you've always wanted to know about Case Studies in Urbanism. This is a very long and wordy presentation. The intention is that you can read it without having me presenting it: it works as a small reader.
This presentation is a compilation of selected topics on the history of urbanization, urban and regional planning theories, urban thinkers and their contributes, concepts, bases of land use, applicability to the Philippine setting, and a briefer of urban design elements.
Urban design is concerned with the arrangement, appearance and function of our suburbs, towns and cities. It is both a process and an outcome of creating localities in which people live, engage with each other, and engage with the physical place around them.
Urbanism is the study of how inhabitants of urban areas, such as towns and cities, interact with the built environment. (Wikipedia)
• The development and planning of cities and towns
• It can also be understood as placemaking and the creation of place identity at a citywide level.
• It is a direct component of disciplines such as urban planning (the physical design and management of urban structures) and urban sociology (the study of urban life and culture).
• characteristic of cities and towns

Transforming Brand Perception and Boosting Profitabilityaaryangarg12
In today's digital era, the dynamics of brand perception, consumer behavior, and profitability have been profoundly reshaped by the synergy of branding, social media, and website design. This research paper investigates the transformative power of these elements in influencing how individuals perceive brands and products and how this transformation can be harnessed to drive sales and profitability for businesses.
Through an exploration of brand psychology and consumer behavior, this study sheds light on the intricate ways in which effective branding strategies, strategic social media engagement, and user-centric website design contribute to altering consumers' perceptions. We delve into the principles that underlie successful brand transformations, examining how visual identity, messaging, and storytelling can captivate and resonate with target audiences.
Methodologically, this research employs a comprehensive approach, combining qualitative and quantitative analyses. Real-world case studies illustrate the impact of branding, social media campaigns, and website redesigns on consumer perception, sales figures, and profitability. We assess the various metrics, including brand awareness, customer engagement, conversion rates, and revenue growth, to measure the effectiveness of these strategies.
The results underscore the pivotal role of cohesive branding, social media influence, and website usability in shaping positive brand perceptions, influencing consumer decisions, and ultimately bolstering sales and profitability. This paper provides actionable insights and strategic recommendations for businesses seeking to leverage branding, social media, and website design as potent tools to enhance their market position and financial success.
Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.
You could be a professional graphic designer and still make mistakes. There is always the possibility of human error. On the other hand if you’re not a designer, the chances of making some common graphic design mistakes are even higher. Because you don’t know what you don’t know. That’s where this blog comes in. To make your job easier and help you create better designs, we have put together a list of common graphic design mistakes that you need to avoid.

9. “…for all our investment in the complexity of
individual buildings on the one hand & in
elaborate engineering infrastructures on the
other, we have failed to achieve a humane
and coherent physical setting for human life”
Gosling & Maitland: Concepts of Urban Design,
1984
10. Urban design is concerned with the
design of the buildings, places,
spaces and networks that make up
our towns and cities, and the ways
people use them.
It ranges in scale from a
metropolitan region, city or town
down to a street, public space or
even a single building.
Urban design is concerned not just
with appearances and built form but
with the environmental, economic,
social and cultural consequences of
design.
It is an approach that draws together
many different sectors and
professions, and it includes both the
process of decision-making as well
as the outcomes of design.

THE ART OF DESIGNING THE
PUBLIC ENVIRONMENT OF A CITY,
INCLUDING THE INTERFACE
BETWEEN PRIVATE PROPERTIES
AND THE PUBLIC ENVIRONMENT
28. Context:
seeing buildings, places
and spaces as part of
whole towns and cities
Character:
reflecting and enhancing the
distinctive character, heritage
and identity of our urban
environment
32. VISTA outlines

principles considered
fundamental to
Hamilton’s
development as a
dynamic, prosperous,
memorable and
sustainable city.
36. Physical Characteristics
(buildings, roads, trees, shade, water, landmarks, pedestrians,
vistas, facilities, ridges, proportion, arcades, sunlight, colour,
scale, space…)
Metaphysical Characteristics
Metaphysics investigates principles of reality transcending
those of any particular science. Concerned with explaining the

47. Second Generation Plan
Introduction of urban design Objectives and Policies to
ensure that the Plan reflects and aligns with the
commitments that Council has made to improve urban
design outcomes through RMA processes.
49. RD Status in the Plan
Central City rules and standards set a
baseline expectation:
• Rules & Standards guide applicants as to what is acceptable
• A breach of rules would lead to an RD assessment on that
matter which has been failed
• Guided by:
– Objectives & Polices
– Relevant assessment criteria
– Relevant Design guidance
• If its good enough, rules can be broken
50. Why RD?
• Have the ability to enter a dialogue with the applicant and could
advise the applicant that the building proposed does not result in an
acceptable outcome in relation to the objectives and policies and
has not adequately considered the matters of discretion.
• Discussion would use Rules and Standards as a starting point and
benchmark of what is expected.
51. • PDP has a range of criteria to be
used in assessing resource
consents
• Particular Interest
–B Design and Layout (36)
–C Character and Amenity (28)
Assessment Criteria
52. B23 (Central City Zone)
“Whether the design of the
external façade relates to
and compliments the
surrounding architectural
form, and breaks down the
scale of the building so as
not to create a large
featureless building façade”
53. B 35 (Residential Activities)
“The extent to which the design of residential
development will provide visual interest and passive
surveillance of public spaces and streets”.

What is the public environment? – any area that is accessible to the general public without control or restriction – mainly public spaces, malls, arcades, streets, avenues, parks, waterfront
Where public spaces are arranged in a meaningful city-wide network in accordance with a predetermined overall spatial concept
Paris – The Haussmann Plan – a modernisation programme for Paris commissioned by Napoleon 3 between 1852 and 1870. Was an architect – Jean-Pierre Deschamps who was in charge of the actual drawing of the avenues. Strong controls on buildings along boulevards – floors at the same height, facades main lines had to be identical, quarry stone was mandatory…
Washington
Designed by French artist Architect Major Pierre Charles L’Enfant in 1791 – fired in 1792
Where smaller spaces are individually designed in accordance with their function, significance and desired character
Saint Peter's Square, Vatican City
– The shell-shaped Piazza del Campo is the principal public space of the historic centre of Siena, Italy. It is one of Europe’s greatest medieval city squares and is known worldwide for its beauty and architectural integrity
Paley Park, New York – 390m2. 6.1 m high waterfall, wheel chair ramps, detail design, access directly off the street, movable chairs, trees at 3.7m intervals
39,000 m² privately-managed public park - most densely occupied urban park in the world
Federation Square – 3.2 ha Victoria’s second most popular tourist attraction, attracting 8.41 million visitors in 2009
Area approximately 0.6 ha – redesign aimed at making space adaptable, multi-functional
7 UD protocol C’s - Context, Character, Choice, Connections, Creativity, Custodianship and Collaboration
An example – the development of the concept plan for Rototuna suburban centre
6 design elements – Design Quality, Sense of Place, Access, Public Space, Lifestyle, Sustainability. Also talk about the role of the UD Advisory Panel.
As definition implies – not just the physical form but also the social, economic, cultural, environmental consequences of the built environment. e.g. sprawl, segregation, unsustainable, expensive
Civic pride, More sustainable, Reduce crime, Generate wealth, Prevent the costs of bad design, Its in the public interest to promote and value good design
What are peoples opinions on this…
