Figure-ground

One of the usual ways to express the complexity of the urban shape is to analyze the figure-ground relations, mainly for the built-up volumes. A substantial part of the urbanism- architecture literature uses such analysis: is there a sense in coming back to such visions? This can be tried in next posts.
