Architecture+and+Urban+design

While architecture acts as a cultural phenomenon that serves to solve different social problems as creating habitable spaces with certain characteristics, urban design acts as a modeller of the living spaces that combines several buildings and free spaces comforming a system that must connect well and work as a fine machine. These two careers are devoted to the creation of places that serve the human being, but architecture serves to a lower scale than urban design. In Caracas we have a mix of different urban sectors, and buildings, from luxury residential neighborhoods with big houses, to barrios with poor people houses,but in general there is no urban design in our city, and that's one of the main reasons why nothing works well in Caracas, although we have amazing buildings located all over it.
