| Summary: | This article is not intended for dwelling on small distinctions and nuances, then I hope the necessary oversemplification of the subject will be forgiven. The purpose is to try to identify three approaches: the first one describes the decline of a model of town that was born with the Industrial Revolution and has lived up to the present day. The second one aim is to present some possible guidelines able to create a conceivable proposal for the structure of a city, by identifying strengths and weaknesses of the contemporary town. The third one shows how the “dress” - the look that the city can dress or undress - reflects the human quality of those that are called upon to shape, distort or preserve our environment. |
