Over half the world’s population now lives in an urban area, and around 75% will call a city home by 2050. But while some cities are experiencing explosive growth, others are shrinking. The challenges of balancing housing, mobility, public space, civic engagement, economic development, and environmental policy are fast becoming universal concerns. Who is allowed to shape our cities, and how do they do it? Featuring some of the world’s foremost architects, planners, policymakers, builders, and thinkers, URBANIZED looks at the issues and strategies behind urban design and invites us to consider the future of cities.
