  • Context-sensitive Sponge City strategies

    Open AccessMaryam Naghibi, Gillian Weber et al.ARTICLECities2026

    Sponge Cities are more than technical solutions to urban flooding–they are dynamic spaces where water, land, and society converge in adaptation and resilience. This study bridges theory and practice through a comparative, cross-case framework that analyzes Sponge City strategies across five Dutch lowland landscape types (coastal, riverine, peat, sandy, clay) and selected international contexts. Emphasizing scale as a critical dimension, the study…

  • Uneven Digital Visibility of Urban Places

    Open AccessShuyu Zhang, Claudiu Forgaci et al.ARTICLESocial Inclusion2026

    Social media platforms increasingly shape how urban places gain visibility and attention in the digital age. In this article, we examine patterns of “place visibility” on TikTok in Amsterdam. We propose and operationalise a TikTok Place Visibility Score, defined as a composite indicator based on user engagement metrics, to measure the relative visibility of places on the platform. We then explore how TikTok mediates and redistributes visibility w…

It introduces a conceptual framework structured around four key dimensions: transparency, public participation, responsiveness, and technology adoption. Drawing on a mixed-methods approach—including 20 semi-structured interviews with officials and s…

  • Creativity-driven urban regeneration in the post-socialist context - The case of Csepel Works, Budapest

    Open AccessJudit Taraba, Claudiu Forgaci et al.ARTICLEJournal of Urban Design2022

    The complex institutional, economic, and societal trends that have characterized the post-socialist transition in Central and Eastern European countries have drastically reshaped urban development. The case of Budapest shows that three decades of nearly exclusive market-driven urban policies have resulted in a variety of social, spatial and environmental deficiencies. This paper presents the paradigm of creativity-driven urban regeneration and pr…

  • Integrated Urban River Corridors

    Open AccessClaudiu ForgaciARTICLEArchitecture and the Built…2018

    The issue of urban resilience concerns a multitude of urban systems and spaces. This thesis focuses on Urban River Corridors (URCs)—that is, urban spaces where the overlap between the urban systems (carrying the ’social-‘) and the river system (carrying the ‘-ecological’) is at the highest intensity—as strategic spaces with a potentially high contribution to urban resilience. The general hypothesis is that with an integrated spatial understanding…
