Abstract:  
The strategic urban design process (SUDP) occurs at the method level based on establishing a pair of functions and their interconnection at the macro, middle, and micro levels. Few researchers have attempted to explain such processes including ‘cognizing’ and ‘making a way’ as two related concepts. Cognizing illustrates the current state of the city's super system hierarchically, and ‘making a way’ helps conceive part of the probable (possible) situation. The mechanism creates causal relationships between the steps. The current study is a review one and was conducted using an analytical method and logical reasoning strategy. The study used a systematic approach to identify a two-step function to determine this mechanism. The steps function, sub-functions, and their mutual relations were first developed and then explained based on the process theory and the logical reasoning research method. The relation is formed with the flow of the specific information (Cognizing Outputs). Explanation propositions clarified the relationships between these two steps. The results of the explanation were shown with statements, and the emphasis was on waste and its return to the process cycle as feedback
