Sådan set er byen is a celebration of three qualities that we see as being at the heart of urban life. We develop these qualities into a kaleidoscopic vision of a future city that is strangely familiar to the one we already know. The City of Paradox – urban life and its capacity to house paradox.While suburban ideals can be seen as promoting notions of conformity and consistency, urban living has the potential to allow multi-faceted explorations, and potentially paradoxical, personalities without worrying about ‘what the neighbors might think’. This film is a vision of a city that never stands still, but where its spaces go through an energetic cycle of adaptation, re-use and re-invention.
