What if urban planning and design were to prioritize rather than merely accommodate the unbuilt environment? Territorial Urbanism Now! calls for a paradigm shift in the conception of urban transformation. It urges us to favor sustainable systems in order to collectively tackle the challenges of climate change.
Until now, urban planning and design professionals have integrated green and active mobility systems in the residual spaces available. In the reverse approach envisioned here, these systems become structuring elements of the territory, supported by a much more frugal built environment.
The contributions by urbanists, artists, architects, and landscape architects in this publication come from research, practice, and teaching. Paola Vigano, Eric Luiten, Eva Pfannes, Stefan Rettich, Susanne Eliasson, Davide Curatola, Tommaso Pietropolli, Elena Andonova, Julio de la Fuente, Ward Verbakel, Beatrice Galimberti, Lilli Licka, Hannes Groeblbacher, Johannes Bernsteiner, Stefan Devoldere, Sandra Guinand, and Stefan Bendiks not only introduce a much-needed paradigm shift, but also show us the premises for its realization.
