My doctoral thesis in architecture is the first major review of Scotland's emergent New Urbanism (University of Edinburgh, 2015) and will be published in late 2015. Suburban sprawl is a significant challenge; the solution offered by the Congress of the New Urbanism involves neo-traditional town planning and architecture. I test New Urbanist masterplans against the Congress’ own aims, identifying the sociological and political consequences of urban plans and architectural typologies.
