Morphogenesis study
Abstract
The Morphogenesis term originates from the Greek morphê meaning shape and genesis meaning creation, and can be defined as the ‘creation and subsequent transformation of urban form’ (Vance 1977, 37)The morphogenetic approach is primarily used in the field of urban morphology, specifically within historico-geographical school. It was mainly researched and applied by M.R.G. Conzen and his successors who formed Urban Morphology Research Group in Birmingham, UK. In the domain of urbanism and architecture, it refers to the analysis of continual and perpetual historical process in which urban tissue is observed both at the time of their emergence and during the development and transformation in time (Djokić, 2009), hence contributing to the preservation of relationship between people and place through morphogenetic imprint as the basis for planning and design decisions. From the perspective of heritage and sustainability, the importance of the approach emerges from its focus on changes of the... built environment, but taking into consideration the changes of the function and to the identity of the environment, and socio-economic and socio-political conditions that triggered changes.
