Abstract
In this article the author apologises to the Congress for the somewhat discursive and sketchy nature. He attempts to deal with town-planning less from the scientific and hygienic, and more from the idealistic and artistic point of view and is well aware that art and science cannot be separated. Beauty and hygiene are as interdependent in the organism of the city as beauty and health in the human body.
