  • Residential building types as an evolutionary process

    Kai Gu, Yinsheng Tian et al.ARTICLEUrban Morphology2022Citada por: 6

    The idea that an evolutionary process is inherent in the sequence of building types that characterizes an area has been pursued in Euro-America, especially by Italian architects. It has hitherto attracted comparatively little attention elsewhere in the world. Findings on the history of residential building types in the Chinese city of Guangzhou and its environs are examined in relation to this idea. Though the history of building types is very di…

  • Green space in urban morphology

    J W R Whitehand, Jeremy WhitehandARTICLEUrban Morphology2018

    Despite the large areas occupied by green spaces in most cities, and the increased recognition of their importance, they have received little consideration by urban morphologists. A sizeable proportion of urban green space occurs in fringe belts. Continuous fringe belts have generally originated adjacent to present or former physical limitations on urban growth, most strikingly next to city walls. Discontinuous fringe belts have much more often c…

  • Plan analysis of historical cities

    J W R Whitehand, Jeremy Whitehand et al.ARTICLEUrban Morphology2016Citada por: 1Referências: 2

    Until recently Chinese and European approaches to the study of historical urban form have differed markedly. Here a comparison is made of the historico-geographical development of the ground plans of the walled cities of Como, Italy and Pingyao, China. Adopting a largely Conzenian approach previously mainly employed in Europe, considerable use is made of field surveys and series of large-scale plans to map patterns of change over time in streets,…

  • Comparing Traditional Urban Form in China and Europe

    Michael P Conzen, Kai Gu et al.ARTICLEUrban Geography2012Citada por: 12Referências: 2

    Urban growth and transformation across the world are presenting great challenges for the comprehension and management of urban landscape change. Comparative urban morphology makes it possible to identify urban forms common to different geographical regions, while helping to distinguish unique historical characteristics and developments important for towns and cities in the hunt for place identity and prestige. The fringe-belt concept provides a f…

  • Issues in urban morphology

    J W R Whitehand, Jeremy WhitehandARTICLEUrban Morphology2011Citada por: 4Referências: 4

    A number of challenges facing urban morphology are examined. Several of these relate to the multidisciplinary character of research on urban form and the tendency for relevant disciplines to be poorly connected. The issues discussed, a number of which are prominent more widely within the social sciences and humanities, include poor communication between different linguistic areas; underrepresentation of research on non-Western cities; the tendenc…

  • The structure of urban landscapes

    J W R Whitehand, Jeremy WhitehandARTICLEUrban Morphology2009Citada por: 11

    Methods of articulating the historico-geographical structure of urban landscapes are fundamental to urban morphology and have considerable, but insufficiently recognized, potential in planning. M. R. G. Conzen made a major contribution to their development, notably between the late 1950s and the late 1980s. He demonstrated in traditional British towns and cities how the way in which the urban landscape is historically stratified, reflecting the d…

  • Extending the compass of plan analysis

    J W R Whitehand, Jeremy Whitehand et al.ARTICLEUrban Morphology2007Citada por: 8

    Research on Chinese urban form has hitherto been descriptive rather than analytical and it is handicapped by the lack of major sources of information used in the West. This paper explores M. R. G. Conzen's method of plan analysis, as developed by him largely in Europe, in the very different cultural conditions existing in China. Components and stages in the genesis of the layout of the ancient city of Pingyao are established or inferred using Con…

  • Research on Chinese urban form

    Open AccessJ W R Whitehand, Jeremy Whitehand et al.ARTICLEProgress in Human Geography2006Citada por: 16Referências: 13

    In the last 10 years, research on Chinese urban form has grown rapidly both in China itself and in other parts of the world. At the same time Chinese cities have undergone unprecedented growth and transformation, presenting great challenges for the comprehension and management of urban landscape change. In planning future urban morphological research during this period of exceptional flux, an important first step is to take stock of past research…

  • The Fringe-belt Phenomenon and Socioeconomic Change

    Open AccessJ W R Whitehand, Jeremy Whitehand et al.ARTICLEUrban Studies2006Citada por: 4Referências: 12

    Fringe belts were long ago recognised as zones of spacious, often well-vegetated plots in relatively extensive use, which formed at the urban fringe during a hiatus in the growth of the built-up area and frequently became embedded within that area when it resumed its outward spread. Although rarely recognised as entities in planning documents, fringe belts have significance for both understanding and planning cities, not least because they have d…

  • The problem of anglophone squint

    Open AccessJ W R Whitehand, Jeremy WhitehandARTICLEArea2005Citada por: 7Referências: 7

    The problem of anglophone squint The limited attention given by anglophones to the literature in other languages is a notable long-term condition, and Aalbers (2004) has quite volubly brought to the attention of readers of Area some of its manifestations and consequences. ‘Anglophone squint’, as it has been dubbed, is very evident in geography journals emanating from the English-speaking world (Whitehand 2003), as Aalbers made clear in different …

  • The creators of England's inter-war suburbs

    Open AccessJ W R Whitehand, Jeremy Whitehand et al.ARTICLEUrban History2001Citada por: 3

    Despite the transformation of English cities by the growth of suburbs in the inter-war years, there is a dearth of reliable information about the processes, and especially the firms, that brought these suburbs into existence. Contrary to accepted wisdom – and paradoxically, in view of the scorn heaped upon suburbs by the architectural literati – architects are shown to have been heavily involved in the preparation of building applications for the…

  • Changing Suburban Landscapes at the Microscale

    Open AccessJ W R Whitehand, Jeremy WhitehandARTICLETijdschrift voor Economische en…2001Citada por: 2

    Focusing on suburban roads developed in the inter‐war period in England, this paper explores the external physical changes to owner‐occupied houses that have occurred in the second half of the twentieth century. The changes examined include the building of extensions, changes to the layouts of gardens, re‐roofing, the construction and alteration of porches, the replacement of doors and windows, and the alteration and removal of chimneys. Roads va…

  • Morphological periods, planning and reality

    Open AccessJ W R Whitehand, Jeremy Whitehand et al.ARTICLEUrban History1999Citada por: 1

    The physical forms of England's inter-war suburbs are examined, concentrating on those created by private enterprise. Attention is given to the contrasts between inter-war suburbs and those created before the First World War, and the timing of the adoption of architectural styles and other aspects of built form characteristic of the inter-war period is considered. In places, houses in Edwardian styles continued to be built well into the inter-war…

  • The Changing Fabrics of Ordinary Residential Areas

    Open AccessJ W R Whitehand, Jeremy Whitehand et al.ARTICLEUrban Studies1999Citada por: 2Referências: 3

    An increasing proportion of change to the built environments of Western countries consists of adaptations of existing physical forms. Many changes are small-scale and piecemeal, but cumulatively they have a major impact on the physical character of the environment. This paper considers the physical changes that have taken place in one of the most extensive types of area in English cities: the suburbs created by private enterprise between the two …
