For this edition of The Urbanist, Monocle 24′s weekly “guide to making better cities,” the team visited the annual congress of the Academy of Urbanism to discuss how happiness and wellbeing can be achieved on the urban level. In this show Andrew Tuck and his correspondents spoke to architects, planners, designers and urbanists in an attempt to ascertain what makes a ‘social city’ for ‘social animals’, and which metropolises from around the world offer lessons that we can learn from.
