Vishaan Chakrabarti on Creating an Architecture of Belonging
Manage episode 277800765 series 2619946
Vishaan Chakrabarti, the founder and creative director of Practice for Architecture and Urbanism (PAU) as well as the Dean of the William W. Wurster College of Environmental Design at the University of California, Berkeley discusses the future of mobility, designing streets as public spaces and creating an architecture of belonging with reSITE founder, Martin Barry. Vishaan has made some thoughtful arguments against banal, processed urban design being detrimental to our ability to thrive as human beings, drawing on imagery from the globe's most iconic cities, contrasting them with the cold anonymity of many modern ones, and applies this to what he see's as an inevitable evolution—the elimination of private cars.
Design and the City, is a podcast produced by reSITE about the ways we can use design to make cities more livable and lovable. reSITE is a global non-profit and platform connecting people and ideas to improve the urban environment.
