URBAN DESIGN International (UDI)
Journal Descriptions
URBAN DESIGN International serves as a platform for research, practice advice, and an international discussion network for scholars, academics, and professionals in the multidisciplinary field of urban design. It is the first academic journal in urban design to bring together an editorial board of both established and emerging academics and practitioners. URBAN DESIGN International is at the forefront of advancing theory, research, and practice in urban design. As an important source of inspiration in shaping vibrant, sustainable cities, urban design has evolved into a cornerstone of planning and architectural theory, practice, and education. This shift has led to a surge in establishing a group of professionals—from architects and planners to landscape architects, surveyors, and developers—specializing in urban design. Our journal provides a dynamic platform for this interdisciplinary community, fostering collaboration and innovation. Through original research, and practice articles, book reviews and expert commentaries, we delve into issues at various spatial scales, from the macro urban to the micro level of streets and buildings, with a particular focus on the spatial, social, cultural, environmental, and political dimensions of the field. The editors are inviting contributions to critical topics currently shaping the agenda of the urban design discipline, including: Urban design, health and well-being; Urban form, structure, and street network; Morphology, ecology, and cultural identity; Governance, urban design guidelines and codes; Intercultural dialogue, social justice, participation and social cohesion, and public space; Development, management, co-production and co-design; Tactical and temporal design interventions; Urban design research, practice, pedagogy, and policymaking.
