| dc.description.abstract | The thesis argues that a sense of place is one of the most fundamentally important quality of architecture and cities and attempts to show that legibility and latency are the aspects of the environment which contribute most to creating sense of place. Further it discusses various design tools which can contribute to the creation of legibility and latency. | en_US |
