課程簡介：
對建築系的同學，號稱一位熟悉空間的專業者，城市既是我們視覺可及最熟悉的東西，也是我們最說不清楚、講不明白的東西。對於一般的同學，我們天天生活在城市之中，但
城市，是什麼？
什麼東西塑造了城市？
城市過去的歷史又是如何影響了城市自身未來的發展？
不同的城市制度（institutions）如何形塑了不同的城市形式？這一些差別又有何重要性？
城市如何演變？它的未來又將如何預測？有意識的城市形式經營如何可能？
本課程將透過課程探索前述的問題，尤其將由歐美城市的「規劃史」回顧中回看台灣的城市發展經驗，尤其聚焦於檢視城市的實質形式(physical form)—從市中心到城郊、從特定的領域到領域邊緣；本課程將帶領同學體驗到城市基礎設施(infrastructure)與制度如何在空間中左右了資源與人、貨在空間中的部署，並透過歷時性 (diachronically) 的過程形成了我們感受得到的城市空間形式。
城市總是不斷地被營造(built)與再營造(re-built)，沒有終極形式。從一個初始的聚落到大城市，持續的紋理與遺跡（layers）留下的總總線索，將成為課程理解城市的首要依據。城市因此有城中之「城」，城市中總不乏許多特別的領域—市中心、鄰里到郊區，每一獨特的領域都有其個別的歷史、機構與制度（institutions），持續的人口變遷，乃至於獨特的空間形式。城市過程（urban process）的結果就是極其豐富的人造文本（complex text of artifacts）:由住宅到街區、由遊戲場到公園與廣場、由里弄到林蔭大道、由高速公路到看不到的下水道，城市既是環境、社會、政治、經濟的實質表現，也影響著後續環境、社經的發展與變遷。透過對城市基礎設施的投放、管制措施的設立、典章制度建立等，城市如何被營造的過程，也同時是城市中的個人與團體透過貼附或移除城市意義的過程。但也正因為如此，移植的城市規劃，無論是形式或制度，總不免遇到「橘越淮而為枳」的窘境。

Course Introduction:
For students from the Department of Architecture, who are known as professionals who are familiar with space, the city is not only the most familiar thing that we can see visually, but also the thing that we are least able to describe clearly. For ordinary students, we live in the city every day, but
City, what is it?
What shapes cities?
How does the city's past history affect its future development?
How do different urban institutions shape different urban forms? What is the importance of these differences?
How do cities evolve? How to predict its future? How is conscious urban management possible?
This course will explore the aforementioned issues through the course, especially looking back at Taiwan's urban development experience from the "planning history" of European and American cities, with a special focus on examining the physical form of the city - from the city center to the suburbs, from specific fields to the edges of the field. This course will lead students to experience how urban infrastructure and systems control the deployment of resources, people, and goods in space, and diachronically The process forms the urban spatial form that we feel.
Cities are constantly being built and re-built, with no final form. From an initial settlement to a large city, the total clues left by the continuous textures and ruins (layers) will become the primary basis for the course to understand the city. A city therefore has a "city" within a city. There are always many special areas in a city - city centers, neighborhoods and suburbs. Each unique area has its own history, institutions and institutions, continuous demographic changes, and even unique spatial forms. The result of the urban process is an extremely rich complex text of artifacts: from residences to neighborhoods, from playgrounds to parks and squares, from lanes to boulevards, from highways to invisible sewers, cities are not only the physical manifestation of the environment, society, politics, and economy, but also influence the subsequent development and changes of the environment, society, and economy. Through the investment in urban infrastructure, the establishment of control measures, the establishment of regulations and systems, etc., the process of how a city is created is also a process in which individuals and groups in the city attach or remove the meaning of the city. But precisely because of this, transplanted urban planning, no matter in form or system, will inevitably encounter the dilemma of "the oranges crossing the Huai River become tangerines".

「都市」，是一種狀態、一種社會/產業/人文的再現(representation)嗎？那麼，「都市計畫」，又是什麼？為什麼都市需要規劃？都市規劃在作哪些事情？和建築設計又有哪些關係？……

Is "city" a state, a representation of society/industry/humanities? So, what is "urban planning"? Why do cities need planning? What is urban planning doing? What does it have to do with architectural design? …
