Conclusion
Introduction• the sense of movement can be read
and understood as a pictorial sequence combined with measured drawings such as maps, designers can learn important lessons about scale in city design.
• A designer who compares, for example, a plan view of a place with a pictorial sequence illustrating a walk through that place has a much better grasp of dimension.
• the Pictorial sequence has the desired effect of pulling the reader into the space, so the pictures must be read from bottom to top.

CONCLUSIONS
The perception of time is influenced by :• The scale and dimensions of the city and its Urban
Spaces
• Arranging and placement of urban elements
• the rhythmic spacing of recurring elements.
• Successive acts of apperception and recognition
• Designed textures, selected color, and manipulated light.
