Sustainable urban design is an approach to urban planning that aims to create cities and communities that are environmentally, socially, and economically sustainable. This design concept involves designing cities and human settlements that take into account their impact on the natural environment, promote livability and well-being, and ensure long-term economic growth and development. This can incorporate green infrastructure, sustainable transportation, energy-efficient buildings, walkable neighborhoods, and other initiatives that prioritize sustainability and resilience. Urban designers, architects, and other professionals often employ sustainable urban design to create livable cities for people today and future generations.
