Editor's Notes
- #3: Walk through history; components of a project culture; authenticity; Storefront, Souk, Tehran, Iran
- #4: My focus here is on the sense of place within the buildings and how they make you feel. Common area walkway, Tehran souk; dimensions; light, texture, materials;
- #5: Tehran Souk, Iran; note height and width of space; lack of lighting in common area. The width of most of these spaces is 3 to 6 meters. The building codes in the US require 6 meters so we are already starting at the maximum width the souks.
- #6: Tehran; natural lighting thru openings in the roof;
- #7: Common Area walkway, Blue Mosque, Isfahan, Iran
- #8: Common area lighting, Blue Mosque, Tehran, Iran
- #9: Interior walkway, Blue Mosque, Souk, Tehran, Iran

- #28: Street, Whitefriers, Cantebury
- #29: Hong Kong; note cone of vision of eye
- #30: Street Damascus, Syria
- #31: This slide demonstrates the cone of vision and human comfort zone. The tighter the ratio of height to width the more sense of place, with 3 to 1 being the maximum.
- #32: The width of the street has a significant positive effect on the speed of traffic, the narrower the street the slower the traffic. This also leads to less pedestrian injuries due to decrease In speed. 25 MPH is the best speed for enjoying the surroundings and giving comfort to the pedestrians.
