As the biennial’s program states:
Copenhagen Architecture Biennial has invited Jan Gehl, world-renowned urban planner and founder of Gehl Architects, to select a favourite film for the inaugural edition of the biennial. Gehl will introduce the film.
Come along as Jan Gehl, the godfather behind the term “human scale” in architecture and planning, presents The Social Life of Small Urban Spaces at a rooftop cinema in the heart of Copenhagen.
This highly influential film by urbanist and sociologist William H. Whyte records and analyses human behaviour in public space through case studies in Manhattan, New York. Observing the natural order of spaces and the way people move through them, Whyte offers an intuitive critique of urban spaces and how they can be improved.
