Abstract

In urban design literature, CHARACTER is the synonym of PHYSICAL IDENTITY and encompasses the physical features, which makes a city unique, different and distinguished. URBAN MORPHOLOGY that concentrates on the physical aspects of urban areas provides the necessary framework for studying the CHARACTER of cities. It is the organized survey of form, shape, map, structure and functions of urban fabric and its evolution during the time. The concept of URBAN TISSUE is an applied method, which has been formed in the realm of this approach, meaning street and block arrangement. The method which is the combination of Italian and German schools of URBAN MORPHOLOGY was developed by Karl Kropf. MAIN STRUCTURE theory provides a comprehensive approach to urban fabric and could be used as a complement for URBAN TISSUE method to express the interrelationships of different components to shape the entire city. It is suggested in this paper that in order to develop a method for the analysis of urban CHARACTER, the URBAN TISSUE method should be combined with MAIN STRUCTURE theory. The combined method provides a comprehensive tool for the study of the CHARACTER of cities. The method could be used for the selection of an urban zone which encompasses the most important physical features of the city. Studying the selected zone will lead to acquirement of a general knowledge about the physical CHARACTER of the entire city.
