hi, i am part of the team that conducted that interview with Jan Gehl. you might find our interview

My ongoing study of how best to design the human habitat has been consumed by the research of Jan Gehl . I am pleased that the CNU will be hosting him for a keynote lecture at CNU20 . If you have not picked up a copy of his latest book, Cities for People , I highly recommend you give it a read.
In the film above, Mr. Gehl mentions the importance of Copenhagen incremental approach to the city’s public space improvements. Planners should find it particularly important to note that a master plan would have never been able to get the city to where it is today, and that it was the slow build up of small projects duke cameron crazies that allowed a greater vision to be created. Perhaps this is the best approach to 21st century city building? Lighter, quicker, cheaper, and, overtime, better.
