The Homegrown City: Reclaiming the Metropolis for its Users

Srivastava, Rahul, Echanove, Matias

Matias Echanove and Rahul Srivastava, found­ers of the design practice urbz, explore how such neighbourhoods and their inhabitants have been unfairly dismissed when they should in fact be under-stood as partners in the story of cities and urban development.
