In the last few years our cities have been changing to accommodate our necessities, for these important task it is essential we consider urbanism practice so we can study every little aspect that needs to be changed or fixed.
In the early days, urbanism was applied in different cities for different purposes, for example, Paris was built in a very special way, almost all roads lead to the Arc of Triumph and the height of the buildings was the same. In some American cities they applied urbanism to design main freeways for evacuation.
People like Hausmann used to think that an orthogonal city or shape worked better and would last longer, but nowadays we are starting to learn that complex architecture can work, and cities are starting to gain a different shape.
The human body is a very complex system, conformed by a group of joined elements working with themselves and complementing each other to achieve a complete harmony, making it a perfect structure; “why not designing our cities in a more complex way so we can live in a better environment?”
As time goes by, there are more people that are concerned about these issues and they are making very interesting diagrams and essays, to makes cities more fitted for our daily life.
