Visual resource on new urbanism and architecture with expert commentary included

The Art of the New Urbanism, Volume 2 (2010-2025) is a treasure trove of transformative urban design for architects, urban designers, city planners, real estate developers, builders, municipal planning departments, community redevelopment agencies, citizen activists, and students seeking to expand their perspective and develop and implement new designs.

The Art of the New Urbanism, Volume 2 (2010-2025) showcases more than 400 works by over 150 contributors, demonstrating a dramatic expansion and refinement of the tools and techniques used by new urbanists to address a wide range of entrenched and rapidly emerging problems. During this era, new urbanists were at the forefront of urban redevelopment, sprawl repair, agrarian urbanism, form-based coding, traffic-planning reform to promote safe, walkable streets, the reintroduction of missing-middle housing, small-scale development, and incremental urbanism, including tactical urbanism. Designers’ commentaries accompany each work, encompassing hand-drawn illustrations and an increasing variety of digital and hybrid works, including beautifully crafted plans and renderings of neighbourhoods, buildings, streetscapes, and gathering places; artistic diagrams and codes; and photographs of a growing number and variety of built projects.

The Art of the New Urbanism, Volume 2 (2010-2025) includes:

  • Startlingly beautiful, inspiring and insightful drawings gathered in one collection for the first timeβ€”most never previously published
  • Seminal material from the history of the movement that inspired a generation of design professionals and their partners to collaborate and advance alternatives to sprawl and rebuild towns and cities
  • Insights on the continued artistic and technical evolution of visual storytelling in community planning, architecture, and real estate development
  • New Urbanism patterns, practices and techniques that are widely popular, value-creating, practical, and feasibleβ€”not just idyllic dreams
  • Real-world case studies of New Urbanism, including retrofitting suburbia, sustainable urbanism, and form-based codes

At the centre of that vision was Noel Crombieβ€”percussionist, performer and the...
