Multi-functionality and resilient cities
Authors: Dimelli, Despina
Description:
Abstract:
The basic principle of urban resilience is functional space compartmentalization, i.e., the development of functionally autonomous urban areas, so that in case of changes in some city’s areas, the functions needed for its inhabitants living will continue to exist. This development takes place at the level of the neighborhood but also of wider spatial units, while the location of public functions in areas that are not vulnerable to natural disasters is important. In the introduction of the third chapter, the concept of land use zoning and the pathologies caused by this type of development are analyzed. In the next sections, the concept of multi-functionality and the need for its development in the urban space are examined. Finally, the last part of the chapter examines the necessity of creating functionally autonomous areas in the form of zones to achieve urban resilience. This development is analyzed at all urban scales, from the neighborhood to the district level, and then to the level of the entire city.
