Abstract

This paper discusses aspects of urban design teaching that restrict its permeability to green infrastructure concepts and regional planning instruments. Through an experiment with the urban design studio ‘Designing the Trama Verde Azul (TVA)’, it presents the experience of studio teaching related to the regional planning of the Belo Horizonte Metropolitan Region in line with green infrastructure concepts. This paper highlights that the viability of experiments of this kind is determined by (i) the proximity between community and environmental demands, (ii) planning and project scale articulation, (iii) place specificity, (iv) interdisciplinary dialogue, (iv) social inclusion, and (v) urban forms determined by connectivity, access to nature, and multi-functionality.

摘要

本文讨论了城市设计教学中限制其渗透到绿色基础设施概念和区域规划工具的方面。通过与城市设计工作室“Designing the Trama Verde Azul (TVA)”的实验，呈现与贝洛奥里藏特都会区区域规划相关、符合绿色基础设施概念的工作室教学经验。本文强调，此类实验的可行性取决于（i）社区和环境需求之间的接近程度，（ii）规划和项目规模衔接，（iii）地点特殊性，（iv）跨学科对话，（iv）社会包容性；(v) 由连通性、亲近自然和多功能性决定的城市形态。
