Contemporary urban design proves this wrong. In \u003cem\u003eNew SubUrbanisms\u003c\/em\u003e, Judith De Jong explains the on-going \"flattening\" of the American Metropolis, as suburbs are becoming more like their central cities - and cities more like their suburbs through significant changes in spatial and formal practice as well as demographic and cultural changes. These revisionist practices are exemplified in the emergence of hybrid sub\/urban conditions such as parking practices, the residential densification of suburbia, hyper-programmed public spaces and inner city big-box retail, among others. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach of these hybridized conditions reflects to varying degrees the reciprocating influences of the urban and the suburban. Each also offers opportunities for innovation in new formal and spatial practices that re-configure conventional understandings of urban and suburban, and in new ways of forming the evolving American metropolis. Based on this new understanding, De Jong argues for the development of new ways of building the city. Aimed at students and practitioners of urban design and planning \u003cem\u003eNew SubUrbanisms \u003c\/em\u003eattempts to re-frame the contemporary metropolis in a way that will generate more instrumental engagement - and ultimately, better design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 244\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.7 x 9.1 x 6.1 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 10, 2013\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47164700688633,"sku":"9780415642170","price":115.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/dmRuWFRFa2YwUFdEQ1ZYb1JETVRIdz09.webp?v=1767401739","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/new-suburbanisms-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
