Determining the study area
Marcel Janco buildings in the centre of Bucharest
and other landmarks
Height of buildings in the study area
Apartments
Street network in the study area
Urban blocks – and the remaining streets
Buildings in the urban blocks
Street Syntax analysis
Analysis result – the graph
Connections
Streets and buildings
3D model of buildings
3D datascape in Google Earth - height
3D datascape on Google Earth – number of
apartments in residential buildings
Datascape – just the centroids

Peter Eisenman – Morphogenesis method
Giuliani Frigerio house, Como, arch. Giuseppe
Terragni, 1940s – same procedure before Eisenman
Constructive logics and 3D printing in models
Kevin Lynch analysis
Urban analysis based on identifying landmarks
Zoom between different urban levels as alternative to
GIS layers – same scale for different levels of detail
Among public and private buildings in Nolli‘s plan

Camillo Sitte – Nolli type analysis
Coltea area, from the GIS
From 3D photography to 2D sketch, similarly to the azulejos – starting
point of morphogenesis, as it expressed different space feelings
Identifying current landmarks on a historic plan of
the city – the use of streets
Urban trace as guided tour – former landmakrs on
current plan
Agent based modelling of the built substance consisting of common
buildings
