With an increasing interest in quality of nutrition, health and improved civic life, urban food production has begun to occur inside the growing cities worldwide and risks to compete with other urban needs. The book introduces typologies, tools, evaluation methods and strategies, and shows the practical applications of the methods. Multiple projects illustrate solutions that augment quality via the insertion of food production entities into the urban realm. Food Urbanism is a versatile tool that can be insightful during landscape planning and urban design work during the preliminary, schematic and design-development proposal. Case studies at multiple scale, macro to micro, illustrate this new movement.
