Keynote: Professor Tim Stonor

Professor Tim Stonor is an architect and urban planner. He is the Managing Director of Space Syntax, a renowned architecture and urban planning practice that uses science-based techniques to analyse, model and design human behaviour patterns at different scales. Tim also is a founding member and former director of The Academy of Urbanism, a Visiting Professor at The Bartlett School of Architecture, University College London, and a Harvard Loeb Fellow.

 

In this delightful conversation with Tim, we ask: what is Space Syntax? Can the syntax of cities be lost? How does the Space Syntax team help cities to recover their syntax? How do we as individuals and communities know if we are in cities with good or bad spatial syntax?
