Exploring Urban Layouts: A Comparative Study of Orthogonal and Radial Cities

This study investigates the road layouts of Kyoto and Karlsruhe, focusing on the effectiveness of two urban designs: orthogonal and radial. Utilizing methods such as miniature models, coin toss experiments to measure distances, and data processing through Excel, we aim to discover which layout facilitates shorter routes. The analysis includes detailed maps and photographs of significant intersections, along with a comparison of travel efficiencies. Join us in understanding urban planning dynamics and their impact on daily navigation.

  2. The photograph of Kyoto

  3. The map of Heiankyo

  4. Photographs

  5. The map of street HorikawaーNi-jyo KarasumaーShi-jyo

  6. Question Answer HorikawaーGo-jyo KarasumaーNi-jyo

  7. But … This crossing name is Shi-jyoーKarasuma

  8. The photograph of Karlsruhe

  9. Which roads do you think short?

  10. Method.1Made a miniature copy as a model of orthogonal road city or radially circle road city like this photograph. Orthogonal road city Radially circle road city

  11. Method2.Throw two coins. Then, measure the distance and distance along road between the points which two coins fell.

  12. Measure the distance with a ruler.

  13. Measure the distance along road with string.

  14. Method.3 Process the collected date using EXCEL. What’s the ratio?

  15. Result Orthogonal road city Radially circle road city

  16. Graph

  17. Orthogonal road city Radially circle road city

  18. For example…
