Abstract

South Buda (11th district of Budapest), as an artificially designed district, displays a revealing combination of urban design tendencies at the turn of the previous century. Its development was preceded by a multi-stage urban planning process in which the ring-radius idea, the network and early garden city ideas emerged in interaction with each other. The paper deals with the urban characteristics at multiple levels of scale, the appearance of urban planning concepts and the evolution of the urban fabric. It primarily examines the impact of international and domestic trends in the history of ideas, and how contemporary concepts affected the realization process of urban development.
