Urban Tree Structures: A Commons Approach for Sustainable Urban Design

Explore the innovative concept of urban tree structures proposed by Philip Krabbendam in July 2017. This design method emphasizes the interconnectedness of spatial and social levels within a community, promoting shared resources and facilities over traditional growth-driven models. Learn how the Field and Volume approach can revolutionize urban planning by fostering a sense of commonality and mutual exchange between residents and producers.
