حیاط ، خیابان ، پارک: طراحی فضای باز حومه شهر( Yard, Street, Park: The Design of Suburban Open Space )

The American suburbs have historically defined the urban frontier. Their character has always been fundamentally related to their position in space and to the quality of that space. Part of what makes a suburb a suburb is open space. At the heart of the suburban ideal is the promise of living within green open spaces. One of

the reasons that people move to the suburbs is a desire for more personal space and an expansiveness not found amid urban congestion and density. An equal desire is for a private domain of house and lot, a combination of built and natural space, that one could call one’s own, care for, and transform.
