Summary

Viewing the city as a social phenomenon, educational tool and lived experience, this book explains how different narratives can be used to navigate our way around the contemporary city. It draws upon examples of interventions, films, branding and other media to discuss different interpretations of the urban condition. It then analyses of a range of methods used to establish meaningful relationships with the city's fabric in relation to key themes such as spatial confusion, networked places, and the interconnection of singular narratives. The book culminates in a series of case studies exemplifying good practice for students of urban design, architecture, cultural theory and human geography.
