Planning and Urban Design
Planning and urban design are processes that shape the development and organization of cities and communities. Planning involves setting goals, policies, and strategies to ensure land use, infrastructure, and services meet current and future needs. Urban design focuses on creating functional, attractive spaces, considering aspects like streets, parks, and buildings to enhance quality of life. Together, they aim to create safe, sustainable, and accessible environments that support community well-being and economic vitality, balancing technical, environmental, and social factors to build well-organized, livable cities.
