1160 | The Past is the Key to the Future: Application of Past Patterns in Spatial Planning and Perspectives for the Suburban Development in Europe

The development of suburban zones has been a major issue in urban geography and urban planning for many years. Ideas to deconcentrate cities were sought in the face of increasing urban density as early as the turn of the 19th and 20th century. Many of these solutions have contributed to the creation of living spaces even today. The issue of intensive suburban development is increasingly becoming a challenge for contemporary urbanization processes and spatial planning in Europe. Therefore, can the solutions used in the past be the key to sustainable suburban development in the future?
We look forward to presentations on the theory and practice of urban planning, morphology, and suburban development, using quantitative and qualitative geographic research methods. The proposed session would provide a platform for sharing experiences from different areas of Europe.
