520 _aGehl is best known for his work revitalizing urban areas by making them pedestrian and bike friendly, and creating vibrant public spaces - something her refers to as 'urban realm enhancement'. For more than forty years Jan Gehl has helped to transform urban environments around the world based on his research into the ways people actually use - or could use - the spaces where they live and work. In this revolutionary book, Gehl presents his latest work creating (or recreating) cityscapes on a human scale. He clearly explains the methods and tools he uses to reconfigure unworkable cityscapes into the landscapes he believes they should be: cities for people.
