Why Are Cities So Ugly? (Does Beauty Matter?)

Have you noticed a decline in beauty in many modern cities? Why is that? Does beauty even matter in the 21st century?

About the Podcast:

The Perfect City podcast delves into the importance of human-friendly urban design while also addressing the historical context of urban planning and the impact of rigid limitations on good city development, such as zoning codes.

We will explore the factors that contribute to built environments that are enjoyable, walkable, beautiful, safe, productive, sustainable, and healthy with the goal of identifying the right approach to building great cities in the future.

We are Tayana Panova, PhD, psychologist and urbanist, and documentarian Ariel Viera.
