In this episode Paul speaks to Abukokkar Siddiki and Patricia Brown. Abu is a British Bangladeshi architect who for the past 3 years has been guiding Birmingham City University students through a sustainable development co-lab project in the village of Kazir Gaon in Northeast Bangladesh. Pat is Director of Central – a consultancy centred on the dynamics of cities and the process of achieving change. In 1999, she played a pivotal role in the pioneering Legible London project which has now been implemented by boroughs across the capital.

Through conversations around urban development on two very different scales, they explore what sustainable development can look like, and evaluate the importance of innovative signage strategies in creating pedestrian friendly urban landscapes.
