Toward City of Enjoyment: Design an Intense City Model in De Wallen, Amsterdam

De Wallen is the most famous and valuable urban area for showing the body and carnal desire under the circumstance of the society going on the way of spectacle. After years of regulation, overtourism and discipline, now the over-concerntrated prostitution windows have caused both social and environmental pressure in a small historical neighbourhood. This thesis aims to demonstrate how can urban design be used to propose an intense, theoretical and experimental city model for areas like De Wallen. The research proposed a multi-scalar strategy system from theories to analysis, and finally to design to help keep prostitution industry while reconciling the social conflicts between main stakeholder. However, the comprehensiveness of design across various scales and follow-up detailed consideration still need to be improved. Toward City of Enjoyment can be a continious topic to rethink about our life sphere, public space and city!Architecture, Urbanism and Building Science
