A Study of the Principles of
the Ideal Urban-Architecture for the 21st Century
by
Yeol Park
Abstract
The perception of the ideal utopia changes based on the different contexts such as
politics, social, cultural and historical conditions and technologies. The cities reflect
these states of mind which are transformed through urban evolution. There are
factors concerning the ideal city as the spirit of the time that affect the urban form.
The goal of this study is to define these factors to understand and analyze the
Utopia is the basic concept. Historically, the aim of the space called “city” has been a
utopia for the human civilization. Hence, first, I analyze the relationship between
utopia and the ideal city through investigating urban characteristics chronologically,
based on the urban theories and plans relating to the changes of thought on utopian
cities in the 20th century as practical case studies to understand how urban theories

Through these processes of research it is shown that the concept of utopia plays an
important role in the development of the urban structure throughout time, even when
it has been difficult to be realized in an urban structure physically. And the process of
research makes it possible to draw the common constructive principles, which were
used to operate on the ideal urban-architecture, from the analysis of the flow of
urban-planning in history.
As a result, they can be categorized in three main factors for constructive principles of

Plato's ideal state was a Republic with three categories of
citizens: artisans, auxiliaries, and philosopher-kings, each of
whom possessed distinct natures and capacities. Those
proclivities, moreover, reflected a particular combination of
elements within one's tripartite soul, composed of appetite,
spirit and reason. Artisans, for example, were dominated by
their appetites or desires, and therefore destined to produce
material goods. Auxiliaries, a class of guardians, were ruled
by spirit in their souls and possessed the courage necessary
to protect the state from invasion. Philosopher-kings, the Fig. 1 | Miletus, Hippodamus, 5c BC.
leaders of the ideal state, had souls in which reason reigned
over spirit and appetite, and as a result possessed the
foresight and knowledge to rule wisely. In Plato's view, these
rulers were not merely elite intellectuals, but moral leaders.
In the just state, each class of citizen had a distinct duty to
remain faithful to its determined nature and engage solely in
its destined occupation. The proper management of one's
soul would yield immediate happiness and well-being, and

In 1988, the basic Agreement on Town

initiative in formulating rules for urban

philosophy in order to achieve balanced
development. The agreement covers themes for
urban development, vision for land use, and the
following matters:
