This course demystifies the language of urban design to improve planners' confidence in dealing both with urban design issues and designers. Urban design is about creating rather than regulating. To assist the creative process, various tools are available including urban design frameworks and urban context reports. There are also good design principles with a long history of application in delivering successful urban outcomes. The course covers what urban designers
do, provides an urban design vocabulary, presents urban design as an inclusive and collaborative process and provides a ‘hands-on’ application. The afternoon session is a practical workshop in small groups.
