Functional Dimension

Urban design’s functional dimension relates to how places work and how urban designers can make ‘better’ places or increase the potential for them to develop. This dimension of urban design is explained in five parts:
(i) movement
(ii) design of ‘people places'
(iii) environmental design
(iv) designing for healthier environments
(v) aspects of contemporary infrastructure

We will continue our lecture with topic Urban Design Dimensions. We will cover last 2 Dimensions for this week which is Functional Dimension and Temporal Dimension. For Functional Dimension, I provided the slides and for Temporal Dimension, please refer to the link given and read the Public Places Urban Spaces by Mathew C.

Please read all the slides, try to understand the dimension and try to apply it in your Urban Design Studio. Be familiar with the terminologies, the definition and do more research by yourself for further understanding.

Don't forget to answer questions in iDiscuss (iLearn / UFuture). The Questions will be opened for 7 days only.

Thank you and happy learning!

According to Kevin Lynch, affect of time on space can be experienced by two ways; (i) rhythmic repetition which refers to breathing/sleeping/walking/cycles of sun/moon/the seasons, (ii) progressive and irreversible change which refers to growth and decay time and space are related to each other.

Three key aspects of temporal dimension of urban design are:
(i) Time cycles and management of activities in space.
(ii) Continuity and stability.
(iii) Changing urban design projects and policies.

1. 1. Zaqaziq University Faculty of Engineering Department of Architecture The temporal dimension This lecture concerns the temporal or time dimension of urban design. Although some times considered to be a matter of working in three dimensions, urban design is four dimensional: the fourth dimension being time.

2. 2. As kevin lynch observes: We experience the passage of time in the urban environment in two ways: 1. through "rhythmic" reputation: the heart beat, breathing, sleeping and waking, hunger, the cycles of the sun and moon, the seasons, waves, tides, clocks. 2. And through progressive and irreversible change: growth and decay not recurrence but alteration. Time and space are intimately related And the great frame work within which we order our experience We live in time places Zaqaziq University Faculty of Engineering Department of Architecture

15. 15. Time cycle Activities are fluid in space and time The main time cycles are based on natural cycles, the dominant one being the 24 hour circadian cycle that results from the earth's rotation, and affects sleeping and waking and other bodily cycles. Working and leisure time, mealtimes, and so on, are overlain on this basic cycle. The cycle of the year and the changing seasons are also rooted in the period of the earth's rotation around the sun. Zaqaziq University Faculty of Engineering Department of Architecture

16. 16. Time cycle Activities are fluid in space and time Facilitating and encouraging the use of urban spaces requires an understanding of the effects of the cycle of day and night, the seasons, and related cycles of activity. Zaqaziq University Faculty of Engineering Department of Architecture At different times of the day and night, the urban environment is perceived and used differently.

17. 17. Time cycle Activities are fluid in space and time Facilitating and encouraging the use of urban spaces requires an understanding of the effects of the cycle of day and night, the seasons, and related cycles of activity. Zaqaziq University Faculty of Engineering Department of Architecture At different times of the day and night, the urban environment is perceived and used differently.

18. 18. Time cycle Activities are fluid in space and time It can be a rewarding and enlightening experience for urban designers to observe a "life in a day" of a public space, or the same space over the course of the seasons. That is to study its social anthropology and notice, for example, its changing rhythms and pulses - now busy, now quite - and different people using the space- more women at same times, more men at others. Zaqaziq University Faculty of Engineering Department of Architecture

19. 19. Time cycle Activities are fluid in space and time Cycles of activity are also grounded in the changing seasons: During the winter in northern temperature climates, for example, even at noon, the sun is low in the sky. Days are typically grey, wet, windy and cold. People may use external spaces only when necessary. In the spring, leaves start to appear on trees, and people begin to linger in urban spaces, enjoying the warmth of the sun. In summer, the trees are in full leaf, the sun is high in the sky, days are long and light, and people opt to stay longer in urban spaces. In the autumn, the leaves turn rich reds and browns and eventually fall from the trees. People may linger in urban spaces to enjoy the last warmth of the sun before the onset of winter. Zaqaziq University Faculty of Engineering Department of Architecture

20. 20. Time cycle Activities are fluid in space and time Urban designers may deliberately exploit the changing day and the changing seasons to bring greater variety and interest to urban spaces. Zaqaziq University Faculty of Engineering Department of Architecture

21. 21. Time cycle Activities are fluid in space and time The grip of the old disciplined of time and time constraints is weakening. While this has been a historical process - for example, candles, gas lamps, and then electric light, all extended the useful hours of the day - the pace of change is accelerating. Zaqaziq University Faculty of Engineering Department of Architecture Although an exaggeration, the term " 24 hours society" is a useful shorthand for the changes under way and serves as a metaphor for "a different type of the world" .

22. 22. Time cycle Activities are fluid in space and time ----- shows how the UK is becoming a 24 hour society by noting how, since the late 1980s, the national grid has recorded an increase in electricity usage between 1800 and 2200 hours, attributed to shops staying open later and staying lit, while telephone companies have noted an increase in night time telephone traffic. As a sequence, the use of time and the pattern of activities, is being variously stretched and squeezed. Zaqaziq University Faculty of Engineering Department of Architecture

23. 23. Time cycle Activities are fluid in space and time By colonizing the night through the 24 hour society we cannot create time but we can provide the means to use the available time more effectively so that we can free ourselves from the coiled grip of the time squeeze. Zaqaziq University Faculty of Engineering Department of Architecture

24. 24. Time cycle Activities are fluid in space and time In the same way that electronic communication has freed us from the constraints of space , there is also greater freedom from the constraints of time. Zaqaziq University Faculty of Engineering Department of Architecture

25. 25. Time management of public space Mixed uses have generally been advocated on the basis that they create more life and activity in a location...... activity must also be considered in temporal terms . Urban designers need to understand activity patterns, how to encourage activities through different time periods. Zaqaziq University Faculty of Engineering Department of Architecture

26. 26. Time management of public space The timing of activities needs to be managed. Activities may be prohibited at certain times to prevent conflicts; be separated in time to alleviate congestion; or be brought together in time to allow connections and a sufficient density of use. Urban places that are well peopled enable complementary activities to overlap in space and complexly interrelate, resisting the narrow time specialization that fragments and compartmentalizes activities. Zaqaziq University Faculty of Engineering Department of Architecture

27. 27. Time management of public space While public space is often naturally animated by the ebb and flow of people going about their everyday business, this can also be stimulated through planned programmes , encouraging people to visit, use and linger in urban spaces. Programmes usually involve a varied diet of events and activity. Therefore, as people visit an area to see what is going on, urban vitality is further stimulated and the public realm becomes animated by having more people on the streets and in cafes, etc. Zaqaziq University Faculty of Engineering Department of Architecture

28. 28. Time management of public space The march of time As well as through the repetitive rhythms of time, we also know that time has passed through evidence of progressive and irreversible change. Zaqaziq University Faculty of Engineering Department of Architecture In a very real sense, the past is fixed and the future open. While we may yearn to return to the city we knew as a child, or relive a wonderful moment, we are unable to do so. This is the relentless "march of time".

29. 29. Zaqaziq University Faculty of Engineering Department of Architecture

30. 30. Time management of public space The march of time Urban environments are continuously and inexorably changing. From the first design drawing to the final demolition, environments and buildings are shaped and reshaped by technological, economic, social and cultural change. A building or other element of the built environment of a given period and type tends to be a carrier of the spirit of its time. Every city can be read as a multi layered text, a narrative of signs and symbols and becomes a biography of urban change. Zaqaziq University Faculty of Engineering Department of Architecture

36. 36. Zaqaziq University Faculty of Engineering Department of Architecture Time management of public space The continuity of place Many current approaches to urban design attempts to respond to the existing sense of place , stressing "continuity with" rather than a "break from", the past.

37. 37. Zaqaziq University Faculty of Engineering Department of Architecture Time management of public space The continuity of place In world of rapid change, visual and tangible evidence of the past is valued for the sense of place and continuity it conveys. Particular value is placed on the sense of place and the relative permanence of its character and identity.
