Typology (urban planning and architecture)

Typology is a way of organizing information about buildings and urban areas. It looks at different types of structures and how they fit into the overall city plan. For example, a city might have areas that are mostly used for offices, residential buildings, schools, parks, and more. Typology looks at the similarities and differences between these different types of places, and how they fit into the overall picture. It’s like looking at different types of puzzle pieces and seeing how they fit together to make a bigger picture. It’s like looking at one big picture and then examining the individual pieces that make up that bigger picture. Typology helps city planners and architects create better, more efficient, and more beautiful urban areas.
