During the 2015 Moscow Urban Forum, city experts from different regions and countries united to exchange practices, projects, and trends. The event fueled discussion on the city of Moscow, which is currently working on its expansion plans, new transport infrastructure, and a series of urban initiatives that are having a positive impact on the quality of life in the city.
One important aspect of the discussion was the role that architects who work for their city governments have. We interviewed Vicente Guallart, renowned Spanish architect who was the City Architect of Barcelona from 2011-2015, to learn more about his experience.
