Typology
New York City is the great American Metropolis and Los Angeles is the Sprawlopolis. Never again in the history of the world will we build something like New York. All cities will look and feel like Los Angeles. The car did this and there is no going back. But while we repeatedly build LA we desire the urban village of NYC because at some point we have to get out of our car and then we want the community, the people scaled spontaneity, the tiny found serendipity of a human scaled city slowed down to the step of our feet. Our goal is to find these moments and the paths that got us to them. Use it all to bring about a place that initiates complexity while restoring the cohesion of the village.
