Dream Cities: Seven Urban Ideas That Shape the World
Published by USC Bedrosian Center on
Featuring Raphael Bostic, David Sloane, John Sonego, and Danielle Williams
Wade Graham’s latest book Dream Cities: Seven Urban Ideas That Shape the World is ostensibly about the architects the seven big ideas that have shaped contemporary cities across the world. Our discussion centers on whether Graham has fulfilled that mission or whether he’s trapped in the confines of an under 350 page book for this massive introduction to urban planning and city history. The answer may lie in the reader rather than the book, listen to the conversation for a lively jaunt through recent architectural history.
