From Copenhagen to Cork: City to listen up to Danish architecture and design expert

Cork city set to spill some secrets over the weekend.

“I think every city can learn to be more precise on the strategic issues and the site-specific issues and the way they navigate in the three scales: the large, medium and the small scale. On the strategic level, the development goals might be different from city to city. But they have to be precise enough to be measurable. And in Copenhagen, especially when we talk about liveability, these goals are based on the behaviour and understanding of people.”

These are the words of Tina Saaby, who was the Chief Architect of the Danish capital from 2010 to 2018.
