Abstract

The Essex Design Guide is one of the best design guides in the UK. In 1973, the first edition of the guide was published. In 1997, the new edition was published. There are differences between the old guide and the new guide. The aim of this study is to clarify the reason why the differences occurred with analyzing the respective backgrounds. The old guide originated from a scheme for conservation areas defined by the Civic Amenities Act of 1967, and was influenced by the townscape theory. On the contrary, the new guide uses some new concepts of mixed uses, sustainability, permeability, legibility and so on, which were incubated under the aesthetic battle of architecture from the late of 1980's.
