Abstract

Urban design education research is increasingly recognising the critical need for partnerships and collaborations with pertinent stakeholders to support the planning, governance, design, and decision-making processes of urban environments in the most comprehensive way. But, every city will define an inclusive and sustainable urban environment differently, making its design more difficult. Cities' complex sensory spatial characteristics are influenced by a wide range of social, economic, political, cultural, and environmental elements. In order to build inclusive, sustainable, and climate-resilient urban landscapes in a graduate design studio course, this study investigates the function of the urban living lab (ULL) technique.
