摘要:This paper analyzes the evolution of modern to post-modern spatial theory, and the ways in which theoretical conceptions of space have practical implications for the layout of the built environment, thus influencing how the city is experienced. In using the method of cognitive mapping, as introduced by Kevin Lynch in The Image of the City, we can reify the abstractions of social space under post-modern theory and, furthermore, promote a pluralistic and human-centric approach to urban design and planning which takes into account what modernist planning has overlooked.
