Architecture+and+Urban+planing

==== ==== ====Architecture is the art and science of designing spaces for the use of people. It specializes in working on a particular space or structure, taking into consideration the context, the structure and the details. On the other hand, urban planning works in a bigger scale, because their designs are for open spaces, considering the society and their needs. Architects mention that urban planners interfere with aesthetic matters which aer not their job, while Urban planners acusse architects of designing a structure as an individual object, that they should be more concerned with the surrounding. ====

How does Caracas stand in terms of both, architecture and urban planning?
====Both urban planning and architecture are not a 100% well done job. A reason for this is that Caracas population grew up a lot in the last 50 years, and urban planners didn't have in mind this when they designed the higways, streets and avenues. The consequence is the collapse of the city, not only at rush hour, but in most time of the day. Since Caracas fundation, the city hasn't developed the architecture at all, the most important public structures are still being the ones from 1600, like the Metropolitan Cathedral and the National Assembly.media type="file" key="loredana grabacion parte 1.mp3" width="240" height="20" ====
