Morphotypological analysis, Settlement systems, Lower Guadalquivir, Italian territorialist school, PolycentrismAbstract
A method for extracting the polycentric and reticular character of settlement systems based on an analysis of urban morphology is established to advance towards a more polycentric and balanced development of territories. The method is based on the approach of the Italian territorialist school to urban and territorial planning and design. The territorialist landscape plans of Puglia and Tuscany are used as practical references. Applying the method to the territory of the lower Guadalquivir, where a compact type of urbanisation prevails, is used to demonstrate how the method works. Some possible benefits of applying the analysis to spatial planning in Seville are presented, such as the redefinition of landscape areas or the design of an infrastructure system for slow mobility, and the strengths and weaknesses of the method are assessed.
