Description: Leading Danish architect, urban designer and writer Jan Gehl joined us for an MTalks on a fleeting sunny day in Melbourne. Along with Rob Adams, director of city design and projects at the City of Melbourne, and Monica Barone, CEO at City of Sydney, Jan discussed his fundamental interest in planning cities for people, where Rob and Monica placed these concepts in an Australian context. The talk focussed on the way in which the cities of Copenhagen, Melbourne and Sydney have addressed similar issues in very different ways. Moderated by Shelley Penn, this open and engaging chat extrapolated Jan’s vision for humanistic urbanism and how versions of his design philosophy are re-oriented in other cities.
