ArchitectureWeek Description
Randolph Hester proposes a remedy for our urban anomie. He outlines new principles for urban design that will allow us to forge connections with our fellow citizens and our natural environment. He demonstrates these principles with abundantly illustrated examples - drawn from forty years of design and planning practice - showing how we can design cities that are ecologically resilient, that enhance community, and that give us pleasure. Design for Ecological Democracy shows how to combine the forces of ecological science and participatory democracy to design urban landscapes that enable us to act as communities and are resilient rather than imperiled.
