Urbanism(s) as the study of cities, a field of practices, and a way of living could shed some light to address not only the physical forms but also the social and political forces that shape the built environment and the complexity of cities. As a survey course, it investigates different paradigms and visions of urban space with contested meanings, the social and political processes of placemaking, and the everyday experiences and imaginaries. Through the idea of urbanism(s), this course explores the urban environment as a continuum of ideas, movements, processes, and change. Cases and design practices around the world are introduced to understand the various social and spatial forces that come into play in the contemporary urban environment.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><img border=0 width=222 height=300 style='width:2.3125in;height:3.125in' id="Picture_x0020_3" src="cid:ii_labfng9c2"><o:p></o:p></p></div><div><h3 style='margin-top:22.5pt;box-sizing:border-box;margin-bottom:0.5rem'><span style='font-size:18.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#444444'>L ARCH 498C: Perceptions of Nature in the Dense City<o:p></o:p></span></h3><p class=MsoNormal><b>W 6:00-8:50 PM<br>Laure Heland <a href="mailto:heland@uw.edu">heland@uw.edu</a><br>3 credits, (SLN: 16448)</b><o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>There is a current trend to design green environments and infrastructure in dense cities, which claim to be “Natural” or “representing Nature.” What is the “Nature” that designers and planners are referring to – and for what purpose?

How do such definitions and perceptions impact both professional approaches, and the public acceptance of new design idioms?<br><br>Through lectures, readings and experimentations, this class will explore various perceptions and definitions of Nature associated with contemporary design projects of green infrastructures in the context of climate change.
