Even if the debate cover a range of subjects and scenarios to be faced related to urban, environmental, social and economic problems, we are still searching how possible questions might be better understood and solved. How can such a complex problem be faced rapidly and extensively developed? This first volume within the Cities, Design&Sustainabiliy Series is a compilation outlining the growth of a particular line of research work undertaken within Socrates/Erasmus-Intensive Programme at the University of Florence, Faculty of Engineering. The book moves through theories, research and practice and try to explain that an ecological view of the city is now an essential component for alternative planning and design. It especially attempts to understand some innovative issues that can explore and refresh in a comprehensive way discussions on some complex subjects. Ecopolis: Sustainable Planning and Design Principles addresses the key issues of the development, regeneration and improvement in urban environment. It also draws on the contemporary matters of sustainability in urban and architectural design, environmental awareness, of energy conservation at every scale of the urban environment. This book presents that a better future, achieving sustainability through urban and architecture design, must be our key for the future cities, focusing on the role of planners, architects and urban designers and proposing more sustainable solutions for physical development and regeneration. Dimitra Babalis is Senior Lecturer in Town Planning and Urban Design at the Department of Civil Engineering, University of Florence, and an Architect-Engineer. She is currently the Socrates Faculty of Engineering Coordinator for the Course of Building Engineering Sciences at the Faculty of Engineering and the Coordinator and Chair of the Socrates/Erasmus Intensive Programme: EcoPolis: Sustainable Planning and Design Principles. She is involved in research projects on eco-sustainable planning and urban design, urban regeneration and development and is author of a number of scientific publications on national and international reviews and proceedings books, of chapters in books and the editor of the books: Bioclimatic Design & Urban Regeneration for Sustainable Development (2003) and Ecological Design for an Effective Urban Regeneration (2004).
