The Relationship between Urban Morphology and Urban Designing Guidance

Urban morphology as “knowledge of urban form”, has notable capacities to participate in comprehension and management of urban development, specially in this days cities have faced with unprecedented changes that create problem for cities inhabitants in perception and creation of cities image and also have confronted designers with a serious question to control and guide new constructions. Use of urban morphology in urban form and image, can take place at a more effective way while we know these cases: 1Identify theoretical base of this knowledge field 2Identify and separate “urban morphology techniques” 3Identify , separate and analyze previous experience of this field in model of schools, thoughts, case studies and usage of morphological analysis. “Urban design guidance” is a comparative and pictorial explanation of policies and goals that codify at metropolis scale with physical quality promotion purpose, at a way that make them (policies and goals) executable in design language. Three techniques (plan analysis, typology and city character study) that use in urban morphology have application for policies and goals preparation in urban guidance that addresses urban form and townscape problems. This paper after urban guidance description introduces trinary urban morphology techniques and defines application method and advantages of their use in urban guidance preparation.
