It's made of architecture, but the experience goes beyond the expression of each individual building form a collage of images created by the work of many over time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the book Frank Wolden presents 35 years of work illustrating the evolution of his ideas on the art of city design. The projects presented range from creative infill in downtown San Diego to visionary master plans for cities across the globe. Frank's design philosophy starts with a creative view of the city where everything from background buildings to iconic super stars are part of a larger urban experience. At the core of his design approach is the breakdown of the architectural object into smaller parts and pieces that connect with the surrounding urban context and result in a human scale experience. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBeyond response to context is a search for ideas that drive design, Frank's background in fine art inspires a fusion of art, architecture, and urban design focused on the design of places that promote creative experiences and enrich urban life. The ART of City Design illustrates Frank Wolden's philosophy on urban architecture through the presentation of twenty-one high profile projects from San Diego to Shanghai China.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Frank Wolden\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oro Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781966515609","brand":"Oro Editions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48793960677513,"sku":"9781966515609","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_0ce42e66-e95f-4ca3-befd-320435dec30c.jpg?v=1793143295","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/the-art-of-city-design-urban-architecture-and-human-experience-9781966515609","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
