What is the problem of the modern urban fabric?

a. Urban morphology needs to develop tools for the study of “open” (metropolitan- and globalization-oriented) built fabric.

b. The definition of “system” has to go beyond the plot, street, building, and open space to include newer morphological manifestations.

c. All issues listed here

d. There is no problem with the modern urban fabric.


Answer is c. All issues listed here. ( In urban morphology urban form means the form of the urban fabric. Most analyses are concerned above all with historical urban fabrics.There has been a shift from a closed fabric in which the links between the different elements (plot, street, constructed space, and open space) formed a system, to an open fragmented peri-urban fabric. Autonomous, atomized elements do not relate to each other any more and their scale has changed greatly. In these morphological transformations the infrastructure of transportation has played a dominant role. New tools of analysis are needed to understand the new components of the modern urban fabric and their processes of formation.)
