Urban design is the process of designing and shaping cities, towns and villages. It deals with the larger scale of groups of buildings, streets and public spaces, whole neighborhoods and districts, and entire cities, with the goal of making urban areas functional, attractive, and sustainable. It utilizes elements of many built environment professions, including landscape architecture, urban planning, architecture, civil and municipal engineering.
