I’m a big fan of @think_katrina and love her approach to urbanism, and so we’re delighted that she’s speaking at AC Built's monthly “Lunch & Learn”. Come along to find out why anthropology is more than a method... and how it can influence city-making.

Last November, our Director, @gemma_john, had the privilege of speaking at the @GBCSA annual conference.

Have you heard of the concept of “third places” - the social spaces after home & work that play host to our social lives? The pub, the cafe, the library or community centre...a concept coined by the great #RayOldenburg.
So what is YOUR favourite #ThirdPlace in your life?
