| Résumé: |
When we move in an urban environment, it is possible to notice similarities in the organisation of urban structures, despite visible architectural differences. This master's thesis attempts to distinguish the urban structures present, using various quantitative indicators associated to buildings and road networks.
Three scales were selected for the analysis: the building, the composition (the space formed by the building and its block) and the neighbourhood. The focus is therefore respectively on the shape (volume, compactness, size, etc.) of the building, the arrangement between the building and the elements in the immediate vicinity and, finally, on the reachable space around a building.
The analysis aims to bring out typologies of structures at these three levels, within Lausanne's urban agglomeration. Several definitions of the agglomeration are retained (statistical, morphological, functional) in order to highlight possible nuances in the typologies from one definition to another. |
