    (İdeal Kent Yayınları, 2021) Susan, Arzu Taylan; Gökmeydan, Melek; Erdoğan, Zeynep; Tuncer, Arda
    Better living environments in cities depends on the quality standards of physical environment and their implementation through city planning. Sustainable urban form (SUF) principles propose designing and planning of livable urban environments by focusing on neighborhood and city-block. The article aimed to evaluate urban areas in Turkey through SUF principles and to contribute into place production practice of city planning. The study searched for the applicability of SUF measures in smart growth, new urbanism and LEED-ND program by discussing through urban design literature and legislation in Turkey. After developing assessment methods for compactness/density, accessibility, mixed-land use, green areas, permeability and diversity, the study evaluated their performance in building-blocks and their environment that are selected among six neighborhoods, which represent morphological differences of residential areas in Yıldırım, Bursa. Although the areas met density/compactness and mixed-land use, problems occurred in balancing sustainable density through open-green areas, accessibility and permeability. Cooperative houses of 1980's satisfied this balance, while central city and inner/outer peripheries have diverse problems due to deficiencies in legislation and social processes. In conclusion, the study contributes into development legislation by proposing standards and design indicators involved with SUF principles regarding the problems of residential areas and their location within city.
