Join the San Diego Design Film Series, San Diego Architecture Foundation and APA San Diego for a screening of The Human Scale. 50% of the world’s population lives in urban areas. By 2050 it will be 80%. Cities havebecome the primary human habitat. According to revolutionary Danish architect and urban planner Jan Gehl, if we are to make cities sustainable and livable for people we must re-imagine the very foundations of modern urban planning. Rather than examining buildings and urban structures themselves, Gehl and his team meticulously studies the in between spaces of urban life. To the places where people meet, interact, live, and behave.
