Projections10: "Designing for Growth & Change" is ready! Feb 17

Andres Sevtsuk · Comments: 0


The 10th edition of the MIT Journal of Planning, Projections10, is ready! The topic of the issue – Designing for Growth & Change – invited both theorists and practitioners of urban design to reflect upon design strategies that enable or allow settlements patterns to adapt, with ease and elegance, to changes in use, and to present and reflect on design strategies that can readily accommodate growth in demand over time. 

The list of seven papers that appear in the issue are included at the bottom of this post. Digital versions of the articles can be found at the Journal's website: http://web.mit.edu/dusp/projections/

We plan to host a reception at MIT on Wednesday, February 23rd from 5-6PM in AVT (room 7-431) to launch this issue of the Journal. If you are in the Boston area, please join us!
