Includes bibliographical references

Building in the city ought to include some consideration for the impact that structures can have on city life. Within the urban context, architecture and infrastructure together come to shape the public realm. The space between these two constructions is where occurrent city life can sometimes be found.

520 $a Building in the city ought to include some consideration for the impact that structures can have on city life. Within the urban context, architecture and infrastructure together come to shape the public realm. The space between these two constructions is where occurrent city life can sometimes be found.
520 $a Traditionally, architecture simply fills in the gaps that infrastructure leaves. The problem is that there is often very little, if anything, that is left for city life. Formally, the city becomes a grid of inaccessible volumes divided by streets that function solely as conduit for transit.
520 $a The focus of this research is to determine specific ways in which structures can provide for city life. It is a search for methods of cohesion between architecture and infrastructure that form lively and dynamic city space environments.
520 $a Part 1 considers the work of various thinkers and designers who are concerned with this question of how architecture and infrastructure can work together, and how architecture can come to operate in a somewhat infrastructural manner.
520 $a These ideas are then held up against a series of case studies of exceptional structures in urban environments. Some of these structures were designed with city life in mind, while others were reimagined and adapted for the purpose.
520 $a Part 1 concludes with the identification of two major areas for design consideration: the "city floor" and the "city ceiling".
520 $a Part 2 exercises some of the methods identified in Part 1 in a hypothetical design project as a means to further explore and visualize the ways in which structures for city life might be designed and function. Focus is given equally to the development of an appropriate structural scheme, and to imagining the various types of city life that the structure might come to support.
