Copenhagen Architecture Biennial has invited Jan Gehl, world renowned urban planner and founder of Gehl Architects, to select a favourite film for 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 Social Life of Small Urban Spaces at a rooftop cinema in the heart of Copenhagen.

This highly influential film in architecture and planning circles by urbanist and sociologist William H. Whyte records and analyses human behaviour in public space through a number of case studies in Manhattan, New York. Observing the natural order of spaces and the way people move through them, Whyte provides an intuitive critique of urban spaces and ways these spaces can be improved.

A film by William H. Whyte, year: 1980, length: 58 min., language: English

Copenhagen Architecture Biennial har inviteret Jan Gehl, verdenskendt byplanlægger og grundlægger af Gehl Architects, til at udvælge en favoritfilm til biennalens første udgave. Gehl vil introducere filmen.

Kom med, når Jan Gehl – faderen bag begrebet “den menneskelige skala” inden for arkitektur og byplanlægning – præsenterer Social Life of Small Urban Spaces i en tagbiograf midt i København.

Denne indflydelsesrige film i arkitektur- og planlægningskredse, lavet af byplanlægger og sociolog William H. Whyte, optager og analyserer menneskelig adfærd i offentlige rum gennem en række casestudier i Manhattan, New York. Ved at observere den naturlige orden i rum og den måde, folk bevæger sig gennem dem på, giver Whyte en intuitiv kritik af byrum og forslag til, hvordan disse rum kan forbedres.
