This section provides a gb academic overview & re-representation of the noted graduate urban design team-study, by using a certain model for elucidating and comparing alternative idea approaches. This model entails a powerful methodology that's valid for many type projects-- in the prior analysis/synthesis phases, and in the presentation of proposed polemic (eg maximum/minimum) concepts (here originally designed and site-photoed by thestudio team). The model's essential "clarifying multi-scale/mode abstraction" application is intended as analogous to your own possible multi-scale consultation methods with GBA. Your own particular projects may engage expedient versions (eg without formal analysis and development presentations) or different fruitful methods to deliver and access the most appropriate proposal alternatives.

Following the above ANALYSIS, are four proposals-- representing a span from maximum to minimum change for the town of Lee's revitalization strategy. The designs are by the four graduate student teams-- interpreted /redrawn here to re-express a theoretical elucidation of concepts.. The gb work shown here attempts to demonstarte the group's excellent array of competing proposals-- by re-formulating in accordance with a certain meta-theoretical framework about "abstraction and the structure of different mode ideas, both at and across different scales". This further conveyed in supplementary charsta and auto-draw version below. (The complete drawings, diagrams, and text-- with theory application-- is not shown nor in quick pdf download resolution). In this wesbite, this work may be construed as a sample prototype method for urban design projects with GBA consulting.
