城市设计和可持续性是创造更好的城市环境的关键问题。英国政府通过其可持续社区议程支持可持续发展,并敦促公共、私营和第三部门在其城市发展项目中强调高质量的设计。然而,由于在如何设计可持续城市发展项目方面缺乏指导,决策者最终可能会浪费时间、金钱和资源在对他们自己、社区和其他地方都不可持续的项目上。决策者的一个选择是松散地遵循城市设计的一般过程,通过一系列阶段和活动来展示何时做出决策并考虑可持续性,需要哪些工具来做出决策以及应由谁来做出决策。为了进一步了解可持续城市设计决策过程的使用,首先创建了一个基线模型,该模型将各种学科和专业中的相关过程的阶段和活动合并在一起。最后,以伦敦克勒肯韦尔啤酒厂为例,介绍了啤酒厂城市设计与开发的过程。通过对访谈、档案材料和现场分析的分析,可以看出这一过程的三个不同阶段。这些时期通过过程阶段、决策、工具和可持续性来讨论。然后,本文将这一过程与基线过程进行比较,以了解前者如何帮助改善后者,作为协助决策者创造更可持续的城市环境的工具。
Urban design and sustainability are critical issues in creating better urban environments. The UK government is endorsing sustainability through its sustainable communities agenda and is urging the public, private and third sectors to emphasise high quality design in their urban development projects. However, with little guidance as to how to design sustainable urban development projects, decision-makers may end up wasting time, money and resources in projects that are unsustainable for themselves, the community and beyond. One option for decision-makers is loosely to follow a generic process for urban design that demonstrates, by way of a series of stages and activities, when to make decisions and to consider sustainability, what tools are needed to make decisions and who should be making decisions. To further the understanding of the use of a process in sustainable urban design decision-making, a baseline model was first created that amalgamates stages and activities from relevant processes found in a variety of disciplines and professions. A case study was then conducted, showing the process for the urban design and development of Brewhouse Yard, Clerkenwell, London. Through analysis of interviews, archival material and site analysis, three distinct periods of the process were discerned. These periods are discussed by way of process stages, decisions, tools and sustainability. The paper then compares this process with the baseline process to understand how the former can help improve the latter as a tool for assisting decision-makers in creating more sustainable urban environments.
