The Well-Tempered City


Jonathan F. P. Rose – the man who “repairs the fabric of cities” – suggests a five-pronged model for how to design and reshape our cities with the goal of equalising their landscape of opportunity.
Drawing from the musical concept of “temperament” as a way to achieve harmony, Rose argues that well-tempered cities can be infused with systems that bend the arc of their development toward equality, resilience, adaptability, well-being, and the ever-unfolding harmony between civilisation and nature.
