Meaningful Circular Metabolism

Summary

This thesis report is part of the master track Urbanism, specialization urban metabolism at the TU Delft. This thesis is about the spatial impact of urban metabolism. When urban metabolism is an integrated part of the design on the city of Amsterdam. This means I take the theory of urban metabolism as a base and use design goals such as circularity and sustainability. This to see how a city would look if circularity were to be implemented in the city being quantified and integrated in their real size. The project focuses on the field of flow analysis and urban design. Using flow analysis to validate and quantify the spatial impact of measurements for circularity and using urban design to see how these measurements can be integrated in the context of the city.
