Abstract
This article analyses graphic expression as a tool for the transmission of the information contained in urban planning instruments and aims to open a line of research on its standardisation. To this end, this work identifies some of the tools of graphic expression used in two milestone events in the history of urban planning: the Spanish expansion plans for population centres in the mid-19th century and the Modern Movement of the first third of the 20th century. The article exemplifies how these proposals included criteria for the possible standardisation of graphic expression in urban planning. As a way of conclusion, the article presents an example of a recent line of research advocating for the standardisation of graphics and colour use in urban planning, based on an inductive study.
