At Studio Graphique many of us are fans of GOOD, an integrated media platform (they produce a website, videos, live events, and a print magazine) for people who want to live well and do good. Within Good’s most recent magazine issue, The Neighborhoods Issue, is an interview with Richard Florida, one of the world’s best-known urban theorists. His upcoming book, The Great Reset, examines how the economic crash will reshape the way we work and live. The article discusses what makes a neighborhood great, why small communities need more political power, and the transformation of American suburbs. You can view the article here, but this issue it is really worth picking up!
