The Urban Space Theory of Planning and Design laboratory strives to unravel various phenomena related to urban space using an interdisciplinary approach based on the theoretical foundations and methodologies of existing urban planning and design. Specifically, by conducting fieldwork to understand the condition of each urban space and utilizing both quantitative and qualitative analyses to objectively describe the phenomena and issues of the urban space, we aim to construct a new theoretical framework and contribute simultaneously to practical urban policies as well as community activities.
