Limoges. At every opportunity people space is created - tables & chairs on streets, taking space from cars, often quite informally. Social & economic vitality go hand in hand - even at the weaker ones, it’s still demonstrably good for business - all business, not just cafes.

From a space for cars to a place for people in one of my favourite client cities, Groningen Netherlands. Another powerful before-and-after transformation 1960’s vs 2021. In recent years one of the city’s biggest challenges has been where to put all the parked bikes… seriously.

Some of you know that during a tricky couple of years work wise, one thing that has kept me going was my belief in this extraordinary piece of theatre; a musical with a beautifully rich score, that carries a message that other cultures and peoples enrich us, they don’t damage us

Just when you think they can’t be any more disingenuous or regressive. How much lower can the bar be set? Manufacture a series of make believe crises & then claim to be the solution. 7 bins Sunak strikes again. Can someone in Westminster *please* actually have some real ideas?

“Amsterdam is preparing to lower its speed limits to 30km/hr [18mph]. The city will install almost 5k new speed signs, adjust 170 traffic lights, and take other ‘infrastructural measures.’ It is also launching the slogan: ‘We drive 30 for each other.’” nltimes.nl/2023/10/02/ams…
