| Abstract: |
Urban metabolism as a framework has enabled understanding the interactions between humans, natural, and
built environment. The concept is multidisciplinary and urban metabolism models have been used in identifying
certain issues of urban planning. Apart from sociopolitical and economic aspects, metabolism also has
spatial dimension. The spatial dimension is reflected in the metabolic processes which is inherent in the
problems of uneven socioecological metabolisms that persist in the production of urban spaces. Urban planning
developed as a discipline for balanced spatial development of urban metabolic processes. For sustainable
development of the city, it is necessary for urban planning to follow metabolic processes but in reality this need
not always be the case. It is possible for planning and urban metabolism to be spatially inconsistent. The results
presented in this paper show the costs of such a divergence in the water supply system of Bengaluru city. |
