Architectures for Next Generation EU Cities : : Challenges, Key Drivers, and Research Trends / / Ernesto Antonini, Jacopo Gaspari.

Cities are facing unprecedented challenges driven by different forces. On the one hand the ever-increasing effects of climate change are impacting on the urban microclimate and environmental balance, on the other one social, political and economic issues are influencing the living conditions, the ac...
