Originální abstrakt

Configurative planning process, a design method developed by Aldo van Eyck, belongs to the structuralist movement of Dutch architecture in 1950s and 1960s. Aldo van Eyck as a theoretician and Piet Blom as a designer, both of them clearly realized the imperfections of modernist architecture and new cities. They were trying to design architectural structures based on the life of vital community. They focused on social and cultural aspects of urban environment. In this sense their projects can provide us great initiates in our effort to design sustainable cities. The article reviews configurative design method and the possibilities for its application in current architectural and urban planning practice. In this point of view, the configurative design process is examined as an inspiration for dealing with some problems of rapid urbanization in China, but not only there.
