This newly updated edition of Design for Diversity explores the physical context of socially diverse neighborhoods. It probes the kinds of places social diversity inhabits, how this diversity can be explained, and what the physical context of diversity means for the residents who live there, for the viability of diverse neighborhoods, and for the planners and designers who want to support them. It seeks to understand how urban design and planning can be used to sustain social diversity.
This book explores the linkage between urban forms and social diversity, and how one impacts the other. Learning the lessons from past successes and failures, and building from detailed case studies of different neighborhoods, Design for Diversity provides urban designers and architects with design strategies and tools to ensure that their work sustains and nurtures social diversity.
