Urban Renewal through Form-Based Codes

Swati Pradhan, Ankit Rai

Abstract


Considering the population rise with the relationship to the limited land, the quality of life is decreasing especially in urban areas, the cities were planned in the past according to the need at that time but the question is can it sustain the present need, if not then what is the solution, what do we do to our old city areas which are rich in culture in terms of tangible and intangible heritage. Urban Renewal is one of the solutions to regenerate those areas and form-based code is the tool which can preserve the history, the heritage and the sense of place. In this article, an attempt is made to share the concept of urban renewal through form-based codes as an alternative method of development.
