Beschreibung
This book provides an original contribution to the planning and design literature. Not only does it provide a fresh and finely grained examination of the daily challenges and opportunities of design review practice, but it does so in an ethnographically compelling way—through extensive references that convey and show what a distanced researcher could never adequately summarize and paraphrase. Architects, urban designers, and developers will learn about how they might work with design reviewers on the basis of the four significant roles that a design review staff plays frequently in the design review process. Faculty and students in architecture, urban design, and urban planning will learn about design governance, design regulations, design culture, participants, processes, and micropolitics in design and design reviews. There are possibly tens of thousands of design review boards in the United States that review proposals for building designs and site designs submitted by practitioners in architecture, landscape architecture, urban design, urban planning, and urban development. Given this considerable professional context, the target audience of this book includes design reviewers, practitioners, scholars, educators, and students in the fields of architecture, urban design, landscape architecture, urban planning, and urban development.
The first book to cover several practical roles that design reviewers often play to make the review process successful
The only book dealing with design reviewers’ potential impact on design review, design practice, the built environment, and public policies
Helpful chapters on how to better prepare and educate the architects and planners of the next generation

“Design reviewers across the United States tell us how they deal, every day, with codes and conflicts, aesthetics and economics, neighborhood character and developers’ pressing initiatives. Joongsub Kim discovers these reviewers’ surprisingly diverse contributions to place making and urban governance. Full of fresh insight, this book assesses lucid and grounded, instructive and original voices from the field to advance our understanding of the family of urban design practices.” (John Forester, Professor of City and Regional Planning at Cornell University)
