dc.description.abstractTransition is a place where the world reverses it self. It is the beginning of an experience and the end of another experience. If we were sufficiently rapid and remarkable transition would be the most evocative point of all evanescent ambiguous and moving. Between two extremes transition takes place which is distinguished to be the zone of transition in the transition zone the character of a district will gradually and smoothly be diversified into the character of an another district. A city is aimed to become a unified whole in the final picture of it. Transition therefore is needed to equalize the different characters and arrive at a unique character with a unitary expression. It of course will make the city a responsive environment that also is visually comfortable. Transition therefore plays a vital role in unifying a city. The city experience then will become a meaning and delightful owing to transition.
