The teaching of urban planning at faculties of architecture entails constant tension, caused by issues related to the priorities among urban design (the form) and urban planning (the process). The authors note that knowledge of the relationship between urban design and infrastructure planning, particularly within the realm of public debate within the local community, is of key importance in educating young urban planners. Described here is a new design approach to infrastructure urbanism in the Faculty of Architecture at Gdańsk University of Technology(FA-GUT), Gdańsk, Poland. This was introduced into the semester programme of an urban design studio and as the subject matter of Master’s theses. The scope has been expanded to include elements of participatory planning, the core of which entails improving the quality of public space in the district by integrated planning to fulfil the requirements of modern urban design and planning.
