Urban design quality, a function of variety Prof.dr.ir. Taeke M. de Jong R. Schmaeling conference Rīga October 29 th 2014

The domain of Urban and Architectural design Imagine a school with elevators and corridors leading you through different spatial levels, time-spans, and layers of design.

A scale paradox, its factor 3 Any conclusion about space is scale-sensitive. It can change into its opposite already with a factor 3 of scale.

Ten levels of variety to be explored Look for differences at any level of scale

A frame 100x the grain of a drawing representing a building Any representation has an upper and a lower boundary: a frame and a grain. Let us notate them as a ‘nominal radius’ R and r.

Boundaries of nominal R and r A ‘nominal’ radius is a name for a range of measures. ‘R=10m’ is something between 3m and 30m.

Usual names fitting R=

Object in Context (months, years) Any object has impacts in different layers of context at different levels of scale. A programme is simply a set of intended impacts.

Ten levels of variety to be explored Look for differences at any level of scale

Content diversifies space Some values of named variables may serve as legend units.

Form distributes content in space

Form = state of distribution Accumulation Deconcentration Concentration Sprawl

States of distribution of 100 spots Any shape appears between total sprawl and total accumulation

C oncentration and D econcentration at 2 levels... … result in accumulation and sprawl at different levels of scale.

Structure stabilises form

Functions at different levels of scale

Intentions and expectations about the object in its context Stakeholders, specialists and users can be located on scale and layer. Ask them to specify the intentions and expectations in their position.

Intentions and expectations are different modes of thinking

What is spatial quality?

Quality as a function of variety
