Abstract:

In general, the urban fabric is the urban land use pattern, which determines the basic law of urban spatial construction, and the land use pattern is presented through the basic urban elements of plot - building type - neighborhood - street - block. The pattern of land use is expressed through the basic urban elements of plot - building type - neighborhood - street - block. In this lecture, the urban spatial fabric will be objectively presented through five cases of European urban development evolution, especially in terms of urban regeneration and fabric changes in one of the major iterative regeneration phases. European cities have the greatest continuity in their evolution, and today's European cities are the result of long iterations of regeneration, each of which has followed clear land use rules that correspond to the specificities of the era, while integrating (juxtaposing or superimposing) different development phases that go beyond a thousand years. Since the Renaissance, European urban land use patterns have been planned and have resulted in urban building typologies adapted to them. Without understanding the European case, it is difficult to understand the logic of land use in large American cities (central urban areas with high-density characteristics) and Asian cities (including good urban tracts in traditional and contemporary cities). By juxtaposing international city cases, common urban land use patterns will be clearly indicated.
