Today, the city of Rhodes presents an environment which looks like to be composed through the incorporation of city sections, which existed in the past. The procedure which a city needs to develop looks like with the procedure of production of a woof, which is always based on a prior elementary structure for its further development. This structure extends through a repeating procedure of producing the same knitting, either by incorporating new patterns which are knitted with the previous pattern and produce the final woof. So, the civic web appears from two procedures which are alternated throughout time.
The first relates to natural web development and the second concerns the repeating design interferences which are differentiated according to the political, economical, social and ideological parameters of each age. Through those procedures, the city incorporates carvings which form an important presumption of a reality which existed in a specific moment. The repeated constructive periods, the alternation of conquerors who imposed different interferences on the environment and the intense rhythm of the city development with the domination of tourism, the last years, will complete a procedure of adding new carvings in the present web while in the maintenance of the previous carvings, the assembling of the historical identification of the place, played an important role, which was fulfilled slowly throughout the years, with successive, proclamation of places for preservation and protection. To that perception of protecting different historical and cultural indications of Rhodes, the city owes its multifold and morphological various environment.
