Change is coming to our cities. Urban Aotearoa examines what this means for the way we live. Moving past the country’s rural self image, the book addresses the realities of its urban majority, questioning suburban sprawl and exploring options for advancing urbanism in Aotearoa. A range of contributors provide insights that span housing trends, Maori urban development, Pacific design, climate action and more. This BWB text is a straightforward look at how cities work and how they can change for the better.
