  1. Urban Morphology

  2. BASIC CONCEPTS URBAN MORPHOLOGY : The study of the form and shape of settlement (Carmona et al. 2003) Refers to “type” Refers to “physical condition or surface of something” In means that: An urban environment is constituted from: Types of component/element and has certain effect on its physical setting.

  3. Kota Lama, Semarang Land use, time or “tempo”, meaning, transformation Façade, building mass, parcel, street network Townscape, street scape

  4. Hamstead Garden Surburb Cadastal Plan (1975) Town plan or ground plan Building fabric Land and building utilization (Conzenian townscape) Town Street systems Plot patterns Building patterns (Morphological analysis) (Panerai et al. 2004)

  5. Basic concepts PURPOSE • Pay attention to historical development of urban area. • Provide lessons for future, as basis for rooting the future management in the historical development. (Whitehand. 2001) • “Morphogenetic priority” : reflect persistence or lifespan of elements that comprise the form of complex. (Whitehand. 2007) • Resistence to change. • Historico-morphological characteristics • Contribution to hierarchy of units

  6. 2 1 Ponticelli, Napoli Reconstruction Situation in between, expansion of family Dense built area 3

  7. Cyclus of building and use lifespan Burgage cycle

  8. Basic concepts TYPE vs STANDART “A construct of conventions and norms that exist in a certain region or town that have evolved over time on the basis of experience” • “Logical” rules (“syntax”) • Historical value “TYPE” is rich of cultural meaning; “STANDART” just consists technical norms and lack and culturally poor. To elaborate the historical content In design process..

  9. THREE MAIN APPROACHES ITALIAN SCHOOL • MURATORIAN Approach: • “Type” has central role, the typo-morphological approach. • Spatial structure has material form. • There are existed “rules” governing the spatial transformation. • The spatial system carries cultural meaning

  10. Three main approaches ITALIAN SCHOOL • TYPO - MORPHOLOGICAL analysis: • Dialectic between building typologies and urban morphology • Systematic way to classify the environment in structuring findings of people-environment studies. • Focus on vernacular tradition. • Address interrelationship between all scales of environment. • Recognize temporal continuities and discontinuities in the environment.

  11. Three main approaches ITALIAN SCHOOL BUILDING ENVIRONMENT PART WHOLE CITY HISTORY

  12. Three main approaches ITALIAN SCHOOL Typo – morphological analysis Scale Levels Aspects

  13. Three main approaches ITALIAN SCHOOL Canignian’s scale levels

  14. Three main approaches ITALIAN SCHOOL • CANIGNIAN’s idea : • Archetype : looking for the basic type, studied from the preceding types. • Use the archetype (basic type) to develop new buildings or environment that incorporated lessons from the past New environment Preceding types
