Tim Love’s review of the Harvard Design Magazine Symposium “Can Design Improve Life in Cities? The Cases of Los Angeles, London and Chicago” was published in the online version of the Spring/Summer 2008 issue of the Harvard Design Magazine. In the essay, Love critiques the emphasis on signature projects by American municipal leaders and looks to current developments in London as a model for a more nuanced integration of design with public policy. As Love comments, “most impressive was the presentation by Peter Bishop, Director of Design for London, a new governmental organization that “will coordinate the mayor’s architectural and urban design strategies.” The diagrams, plans, and renderings of the several ambitious but surgical urban design interventions in central London were unparalleled at the symposium and equal the best urban design work being done today.”
