Koolhaas pronounced urbanism dead in 1995. Since then, urban design has struggled to come to terms with this and other losses including environmental stability, af- fordable housing, design control, and urban amenity. This book explores urban design paradigms transitioning through a misappropriation of Kübler-Ross' 'five stages of grief' - from pro-sprawl 'denial', NIMBY 'anger', revisionist NewUrban, 'bargaining', 'depressed' starchitects, through to an optimistic manifesto of 'acceptance'.
Marcus White (PhD) is an award-winning architect and urban designer, Professor of Urban Design at Swinburne University, and director of Harrison and White. Nano Langenheim is a horticulturist, arborist, lecturer in land- scape architecture and urban design at the University of Melbourne. Their research explores the integration of data, technology and cultural specificity to support design decision making for cities in transition.
