Abstract
Urban areas around the world are also facing a climate crisis – longer, irregular and unpredictable periods of extreme precipitation or heat. In urban areas, the consequences of these changes have the greatest impact on people's lives, and in large cities, these changes occur quickly. Water-based Urban Planning (WSUD) offers an approach to an alternative spatial organization of cities and infrastructures that meets urban and climate problems. However, instead of considering the use of water–saving design technologies as a fundamental concept of the final state of the urban environment, this study examines the theory that water conservation is a variable that depends on the context and other variables in the study area. Thus, water conservation acts as a link between the context and the concept, where the context forms the concept, and the concept provides a focus on how to take into account the context. Therefore, understanding the context helps architects and urban planners to identify opportunities among the many complexities and contradictions in the urban environment, which in the future will positively affect the inclusion of water resources in local urban planning programs and thereby facilitate going beyond hypothetical levels and abstractness of the concept.
