Design objectives of urban design

The goal of modern urban design is to create a comfortable, convenient, sanitary and beautiful material space environment for people. Urban design is a comprehensive design of various material elements in a certain geographical space on the premise of achieving the predetermined unified goal, so that the city can achieve the mutual cooperation and coordination of various facilities, the unification and perfection of spatial form and the optimization of comprehensive benefits. There are two specific methods: one is to carry out multidisciplinary overall design under unified leadership; On the other hand, on the basis of unified design scheme, professional design is carried out separately and then comprehensive. In this way, people engaged in various urban engineering designs are required to consciously carry out their own engineering designs according to the overall intention of urban design.

In modern urban design, we should not only learn from the excellent examples of tradition and modernity, but also deeply understand all kinds of problems in modern urban life and solve them with modern technology and means. Paying attention to functions, including people's mobility and communication, is an important topic in urban design. The physical space of the city is the "stage" for people to carry out various activities. Just as designing a stage must understand drama, designing a city must be familiar with and study urban life, and explore an ideal urban society. Adapting to the times is another important topic of urban design. The road landscape design in the automobile era is not the same as that in the carriage era; Parks and squares used for mass activities are completely different from ancient private gardens enjoyed by a few people in design methods. Urban designers should create an urban physical environment that adapts to the times.
