![“The image of the city” was written by American urban
planner Kevin Andrew Lynch (1918 – 1984).
On this concern, Lynch states that, unlike Architecture,
Urbanism is in constant change: today, fifty years later,
this issue could be regarded and discussed with further
attention, as architecture, too, is subject to external
factors and different perceptions, scale, but mostly a
cultural aspect, involving the fact that In the 1960s the
life-cycle of a building was still not wholly taken into
account, as it came up about twenty years later with
sustainability issues.
Lynch focuses on four main concepts, correlated to a
wise urban planning:
a urban system has to be held legible, through definite
sensory cues
its image has to be perceived by the observer, arbitrarily
selected by the community and finally manipulated by
city planners.
legibility and imageability would then lead to the
identification of a structure, and therefore a precise
identity, which are both parameters through which it is
possible to analyse an urban system and its own
elements.
Lynch reckons that there might be different relations of
complexity within every structure: these consist in the
relations between definite elements, which are identified

[In architecture and structural engineering, a truss is
a structure comprising one or more triangular units
constructed with straight members whose ends are
connected at joints referred to as nodes. External forces
and reactions to those forces are considered to act only at
the nodes and result in forces in the members which are
either tensile or compressive forces. Moments (torques)
are explicitly excluded because, and only because, all the
joints in a truss are treated as revolutes.](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/page27-110613030757-phpapp02/85/Page27-8-320.jpg)

The point is that home and growing of food. Industrial this fruitful culture of self-made city is a machine designed to regulate architecture has only been illegal as human life. Illegal architecture is closer long as the “official” city has been in to nature including human nature and the picture.

Illegal architecture is a new name for the citizen’s right to express himself through architecture. These guys don’t
