We look back over the past 12 months at some of the most colourful and fascinating moments on ‘The Urbanist’. We hop on a houseboat in San Francisco, learn the craft of bell-ringing, chat with Daniel Libeskind and party with a cycling orchestra in Rio. Plus: we stroll up and down Embassy Row in Washington, get naked on Brighton’s nudist beach and chat with the mayor of Athens about the difficulties of managing his city this year.
