Spatial+Organization


 * We call spatial organization to the way in which urban structures are distributed in a city, and the way in which all the different types of spaces are related. The purpose of the spatial organization is to provide the maximum choices for the people in the city when it comes to transport, stores, hospitals, schools, libraries, government offices, universities, movie theaters, malls, sports, and so on. For this, urban planners always try to achieve more using less, leaving no wastes so the city can develop in the most efficient way, respecting people`s needs and comfort. **
 * When a city is planned, there are several rules or “codes”. Urban planners - and also architects - must follow the laws. For example, it is well known that the most important places in city are mostly emphasized with high buildings, known as skyscrapers. In a high developed city, there`s a limited high for their construction (this way the sunlight can enter to the buildings and reach also the earth surface. It prevents the existence of dark alleys and streets, reducing the risks of delinquency). The design of the blocks is very important, because of their big influence on the distribution of streets. Finally, to fill in gaps (spaces left over after planning or raising a building), planners use the landscape. This way, they can create useful and beautiful spaces such as parks, meadows, piazzas, both public and private gardens, and so on. Landscape allows the presence of flora and fauna and reduce the impact on the environment, at the same time that makes life better. **
