Analysis
the planner strengthens the preliminary goals, objectives and priorities
At this point, it is clear what the site potentials and limitations are and what activities and
facilities and intended use will require
Based on the proposed use, observations and conclusions drawn from the site inventory
becomes site analysis
Site suitability:
Site constraints:
Synthesis
Until this point, the major effort has been to develop a solid base of the site and the use
information. As the information is collected and analyzed, the planner may develop conceptual
approaches to the plan
Ideas that occurred early on should be recorded and brought forward for a closer look at this
time.
This is the point in the process when concept development is the focus of the planning effort
where the planner attempts to find the best fit among the site, structure and use; when the
character and quality of the “place” is explored and developed
Generating alternative concepts is often facilitated by working with graphic site analysis and
schematic two-dimensional functional diagrams.
Selection
As major issues of the site, function, and aesthetics are resolved, the planner must evaluate and
select the best alternatives for a more detailed study
The evaluation of each alternative is based on how well it fulfils the criteria and goals set forth
earlier in the analysis phase
