Representation of Urban Form in Typomorphology Scholarship: A Critical Reading of the Graphic Content of Urban Morphology Journal
Parlak, Neris Saadet; Bilsel, Fatma Cânâ (2021-01-21)

In these studies, researchers aiming to reveal the physical and spatial structure of cities face the challenge of representation of 3D spaces in various scales from territories to buildings on a 2D printed/digital paper. This challenge brings in a question of abstraction on what information to include and what not to, and it is directly related to the method of typomorphology. Despite its indis...
