Architecture and Spatial Planning

Description

The city of Tirana is experiencing rapid and continuous growth, leading to an intensive expansion and density, consequently a multidimensional transformation of urban spaces. Which leads to greater living pressure and creates a dynamism in the urban environment. The central area is usually associated mainly with these changes due to the different types of function and use they provide. This paper aims are to investigate the urban space morphology of Tirana City by analyzing surfaces cover and functionality transformation. Using spatial data for land use changes and examine the impact of socio-economic factors. Furthermore, the rapid processes have neglected the need for comparability of data for real information relating to the transformation of urban spaces, but with considerable importance for the authorities during the planning and management of services. This requires monitoring and evaluation, based on their measurable capacity and compare the changes to adapt positively and move to sustainability.

Urban Space Transformation in Tirana City

Pristina, Kosovo

The city of Tirana is experiencing rapid and continuous growth, leading to an intensive expansion and density, consequently a multidimensional transformation of urban spaces. Which leads to greater living pressure and creates a dynamism in the urban environment. The central area is usually associated mainly with these changes due to the different types of function and use they provide. This paper aims are to investigate the urban space morphology of Tirana City by analyzing surfaces cover and functionality transformation. Using spatial data for land use changes and examine the impact of socio-economic factors. Furthermore, the rapid processes have neglected the need for comparability of data for real information relating to the transformation of urban spaces, but with considerable importance for the authorities during the planning and management of services. This requires monitoring and evaluation, based on their measurable capacity and compare the changes to adapt positively and move to sustainability.
