Deze studie onderzoekt de ontwikkelingsvoorwaarden van de Ommuurde Stad van Lahore, Pakistan. Het werkt een kennisbasis uit door de stad te analyseren vanuit een ruimte-maatschappij-perspectief. Op dit ogenblik degenereert de Ommuurde Stad tot een onleefbare ruimte. Deze toestand is gerelateerd aan het algemene beeld, de structuur en het functioneren van de stad. Het specifieke geval van de Ommuurde Stad laat toe ons het begrijpen van de stad en haar ontwikkeling te herdenken. Op basis van het uitgangspunt dat het begrijpen van de stad van cruciaal belang is om haar te kunnen veranderen, gebruikt deze studie drie uiteenlopende velden - planningspraktijk, stadsgeschiedenis en -theorie en empirisch werk - om een corpus van 'urbane kennis' te genereren. Kennis over haar ruimtelijkheid, materialiteit en socialiteit informeren het mogelijke ontwerp. Dit onderzoek bevestigt dat de stad een constellatie - een over de tijd opgebouwde voetafdruk - is met een relatieve integriteit en autonomie. Dit besef is van vitaal belang om beschikbare mogelijkheden en middelen te identificeren om haar te transformeren. In het huidige ontwikkelingsparadigma blijkt de planningsovertuiging voor groei naïef wanneer ze vergeleken wordt met de capaciteit om nieuwe stadsuitbreidingen te reguleren en te controleren. Het huidige paradigma onderschat de capaciteit van de stad om zelf de benadering om haar te plannen te informeren. Wij argumenteren dat een ruimtelijk-sociaal begrijpen van een stad een verstrekkende exploratie is die een nieuwe stedelijke ontwerp- en planningsbenadering kan ondersteunen en aldus bijdraagt aan de ontwikkeling van de stad. Sleutelwoorden: stad, ontwikkelingsvoorwaarden, ruimte-maatschappijanalyse, stedelijk ontwerp en planning, ruimtelijke kennis, Lahore Development Conditions of Andaroon Shehr, the Walled City of Lahore: Towards a spatial knowledge base for urban design and planning This research examines the development conditions of the Walled City of Lahore, Pakistan. It develops a knowledge base by investigating the city from a space-society perspective. Currently, the Walled City is degenerating into an unliveable space. We understand that this condition is related with the overall image, structure and functioning of the city. The case of the Walled City allows rethinking our understanding of a city and its development. Based on the position that the understanding of the city is critical for transforming it, this study uses three divergent fields - planning practice, urban history and theory, and empirical work - to generate a body of urban knowledge. It is knowledge of the relevance of its spatiality, materiality and sociality for inventing design. The study concludes that city is a physical constellation - a footprint accumulated over time - and it has a relative integrity and autonomy. This realization is vital to identify available means and resources to transform it. In the current development paradigm, the planning conviction for growth appears naïve when compared with the capacity to regulate and control new urban expansions. The current paradigm underrates the capacity of city to inform the approach to plan it. We argue that a spatial-social understanding of a city is a far-reaching exploration towards a new urban design and planning approach/policy for addressing challenges of objective and composed development. Key words: city, development conditions, space-society analysis, urban design and planning, spatial knowledge, Lahore

The main research objective is to decipher the role of both water conditions and water conflicts in the interplay of the rural settlements and productive landscapes that constitute the Chia-Nan Plain, Taiwan. Consequently, the research considers Taiwans (r)urban design from three main perspectives: (1) rural water management; (2) vulnerable productive landscapes; and (3) fragmentated peri-urban settlements. The rural economies of Taiwan have been experiencing a shift from agriculture to high-technology industry, while the rural population remained stable and aging. Therefore, the research focuses on the challenges regarding the environmental and economic transformations of the rural areas in the Chia-Nan Plain. The research applies descriptive and interpretive mapping methodologies to review the patterns of interactions between cultivation behaviours and rural settlement morphologies in the Chia-Nan Plainthe rice basket of Taiwan. The research furthermore discusses the crucial logics behind the formation of settlements in this region as a result of rural-urban interactions. Hence, three layers (water, productive landscape, and scales of production) in the productive surface, that are critical to the spatial environment, are highlighted in the research. These three layers characterize its social and spatial networks for territorial development, and build up the fundamental structures and activities of the region. Three new hypotheses in the form of urban design investigations, are tested: (1) a qualitative water landscape which could guide the deurbanization in the post-agricultural regions; (2) a qualitative water productive landscape that could be an engine of new rural economic development; and (3) new scales of production which could change land patterns. The design research for the Chia-Nan plain concentrates mainly on the ability of the potential new rural settlement forms to adapt to the contemporary requirements that result from climate change and economic shifts. Extreme weather conditions, such as floods and droughts, are both new realities. The increasing frequency of storms has led to massive floods in both low-lying fields and along the coastline, and droughts have resulted in a fight of water usage between agriculture and high-technology industry. The research employs two case studies to discuss two different water-related productive landscapes (paddy and aquatic landscapes), and explores how innovative urban design propositions and water management measures in these territories can be adapted to benefit the environment. The areas investigated by these two case studies are located in two different geographical conditionsplain and coastal areasof the Chia-Nan Plain. They face two different challenges, namely water retention and land subsidence. The two case studies are initiated by historical analysis and the deciphering of contemporary projects, via-a-vis layered narratives and contested territories of specific sites. Design research concludes the two studies, that intend to innovate an approach for Taiwans urban design and water management in the interplay of rural settlements and productive landscapes. They verify the three hypotheses. In short, the research uses research by design. It explores spatial strategies that aim to have the potential to meet the changes of contemporary society and steer necessary environmental transformations. The research therefore draws on and contributes to the field of landscape urbanism in Asian agrarian territories, which are currently undergoing unprecedented transformation, in speed, scale and scope. The research will enable new possibilities for a productive terrain to generate new public realm, which can be used by urban and landscape designs to structure a deurbanizing agrarian territory.
