• Globalization and Localization Urban Character Territorial Embeddedness Historicism |
|
|
Post-industrial cities have become ‘Global Cities’, that are characterized by,among others, and permeation of post-modern culture – hyper-rationality andthe consumption culture. (Abrahamson 2004). These global cities are easily recognized through the common architecturallanguage that they use to assert themselves as such. The languageincludes steel, glass and concrete, skyscrapers, neat lines, simple geometry(Connor, 1989). |
Urban Character |
|
Economic systems/transactions are based on unique, rather thana universal set of social relationships (Granovetter, 1985). Postmodernism advocates calibration or customization ofresponses to the local realities. critical regionalism approachabandons ‘placelessness’. It has been proposed that modern architecture results inplacelessness when it is automatically adopted simply for itsuniversal qualities. (Frampton, 1983) |
TERRITORIAL EMBEDDEDNESS |
|
Asian cities areproducts of historical events that deviate from the developmentalpaths that western countries have trodden. |
HISTORICISM |
|
• Asian Realities Fast Rate of Development Mega-cities and Sprawl Informal Sector |
|
|
High level of capital mobilityis among the features thatcharacterize the post-modernworld. The massive infusion offoreign direct investments toAsian economies during the post-war period. |
Fast Rate of Development |
|
While this trend has resulted in urban agglomerationsthat support economically productive relations, largecities also breed urban life degeneration. Mega-cities are discontinuous constellations ofspatial fragments, functional pieces and socialsegments (Soja, 2000). |
MEGA-CITIES AND SPRAWL |
|
a mass or collection of things; an assemblage. |
agglomeration |
|
New towns and gateddevelopments are large-scaleformal interventions that arejuxtaposed to spontaneoussettlements. Modernism, comes with sanitizing strategies (Bryman, 2004).This strategy ends up that delineatingbetween the formal and the informalspaces within the urban space. |

|
SPATIAL SEGREGATION |
Uneven development The perception of anomaly in the process that brought about thesenew developments is prompted by the visual incongruity theycreate in the urban fabrics. |
|
SPATIAL SEGREGATION |
There is vertical discontinuity because ofthe sharp edges caused by theconstruction of high-rise structures amidsttraditional city centers with low-risebuildings and single-detached dwellings. There is also horizontal discontinuityresulting from large-scale, gateddevelopments in the middle of old part ofthe city that has a fine fabric. |
