Housing, nature, city: exploring the garden metropolis. Two American cities, two European cities, four completely different environments that share common concerns. In a world where we seek to differentiate ourselves, we want to speak about what brings us together, looking elsewhere and learning from each other without denying the inevitable specificities of our cities and natural environments.
