Abstract: In the spirit of transdisciplinary concept, the paper propose the radiography and lending concepts, methods, methodologies and theories of biology and physics to natural landscape, urban and architectural domains, also application for a restricted area of the city. In the case studies, it is proposed implement of an unconventional solutions to neutralize the harmfull effect of infrastructure to human metabolism, knowing that human and urban health interrelate each other and determine by feedback, and the idea that a city is like a human body, represented by a long time a issue presented in different expressions and urban, philosophical and practical experiences. The study promotes the idea of a city seen through the prism of a biological organism, an idea that dominated the theoretical urban thinking, in that urban manifestation resembles the biological manifestation, both its existence and composition, reflecting a biological existence of its inhabitants even other life forms who cohabitate with them. Beyond history, size, population, architecture, urban form complexity or types of activities, the city accumulate an inner energy, quantitative and qualitative, processed by complex phenomenas that generate a continuous metabolic transformation, a similar phenomenon like any living organism. Methods of analysis, diagnosis and therapy of human and hence of anthropogenic landscape, human settlements, could arise from adiacente (related) sciences considered unconventional of urban, architectural and landscape domains (music, sacred geometry and geography, computer science, linguistics, complexity theory, quantum physics etc.). The case study follows the research topic of human interaction with various types of infrastructure, by placing in the different urban areas of Capital's urban context through Oberon type device non-linear analysis using AD's bio-phyto-dynamics modulators type.
