Abstract

This chapter develops the issue of establishing new transdisciplinary codes for the design of urban infrastructure of a grid city. In the networked and systemic vision of a grid city, it is necessary to find a direct connection between three levels of the infrastructural design process that today are separated: the urban design level, the grid design level, and the technical design level. The chapter explores innovative horizons to implement a new multilevel and integrated design code to shift the contemporary urban infrastructural project toward a much more complex system to generate multiple dimensions of urban quality: a system with which to promote the coexistence of different aspects: the infrastructural network design to achieve metabolic interactions between nature, resources, and communities; the technological-environmental interface design to enable multiple connections between spaces, buildings, and users; the grid design to activate physical and immaterial relationships between collective and private dimensions.
