Professor Carlos Moreno, is the architect of the idea of the 15 minute city – this was picked up last year by the World Economic Forum and as part of a global TED talk conference. The idea of being able to get all our urban necessities within a 15 minute walk has clearly gained traction across the world.

This podcast explores how the idea is being implemented, focusing on the Corona pistes for cycling in Paris and on recent measures to trial schools as multi-purpose buildings.

The impact of Covid is part of the discussion and looks at imaginative ways of rethinking how art and shopping can interact.
