Abstract:
This chapter briefly defines the contemporary field of urban design as it arises in the international discourse and in Greece, with special emphasis on the context of sustainability. The necessary interdisciplinary approach to urban design is introduced as a continuous process of shaping places, at the overlapping design scales and with the contribution of architecture, urban and spatial planning, landscape architecture, ecology and conservation of natural and cultural resources. Sustainable urban design is emerging as a contemporary challenge for cities today.
