Summary

The subject of the following research study is the transcription of urban factors in contemporary architecture. The task is to understand the theoretical approaches which set the structure of urban fabric as the basic synthetic tool for architecture, as well as the method and means that manage to accomplish this corresponding between city and architecture. For this purpose, the study attempts to read the cognitive and spatial correlations between the produced architectural space and the urban condition. The investigative method includes bibliographic research about wandering in the city, the architectural promenade, the in-between transitional spaces and the urban typology and memory. The thesis is structured in two chapters. The first introductory chapter is about the meaning of wandering as an urban and architectural activity in the 20th century. The second and main chapter studies the involution of urban condition in architecture and focuses on the contemporary transcripts of the urban parameters in the architectural design. This chapter is based mainly on references of representative examples of architects, with the purpose to emerge the different approaches of the subject.
