AUTONOMOUS URBANISM
EVAN SHIEH
“Autonomous vehicles offer a major opportunity to rethink the design and evolution of our city's built environments, with important implications on urban life and mobility since automobiles replaced horse-powered travel and changed the design of cities in the prior century.”
“ To shift the contemporary conversation around driverless vehicles towards one in which technological advances are fore-fronted by the public good—one that transitions cities dependent on the motorized, private vehicles of today, to cities designed for shared, multi-modal, and automated vehicles of tomorrow.”
“This book calls on us a society to reexamine the interdependent relationship between our mobility and urban form, our mobility and infrastructure, our mobility and urbanization, and most importantly, our mobility and our societal ambitions.”
“An alternative form of visual communication, an architectural graphic novel that challenges the reader to consider how their own mobility choices and behaviors shape urban space and the experiences they engender.”
“At the core of the studio's practice is the analysis of the context surrounding projects, ranging from master plans to affordable housing.”
Autonomous Urbanism: Towards a New Transitopia is a research and design monograph that explores the latent and transformative impact autonomous vehicles will have on the urban and spatial future of cities. Grounded in a discussion of our recent urban transportation history, the book speculates on a driverless mobility paradigm shift through multi-scalar design typologies and transportation policies, visioned through the unique format of an architectural graphic novel.
