Join visionary architect Mark Lakeman and Jill Cloutier of
Sustainable World Radio www.kcsb.org as he inspires and guides the
grid structure of a typical American city into a vital social commons
with Portland's City Repair Project ( www.cityrepair.org),
Now a national movement, City Repair is about cities, towns, grids
and the intersections where our lives can converge.
Multidisciplinary, City Repair combines architecture, urban planning,
anthropology, community development, public art, permaculture and
ecological design in projects that transform public space. Formed in
1996, City Repair was conceived as an "anti-virus" to combat
isolation and over-commodification of conventionally designed cities,
by literally inserting villages into cities.
Trained as an architect, Mark Lakeman is a founding member of the
City Repair Project, and the creative director of the ecological
design firm Communitecture. Each Spring he coordinates the Village
Building Convergence, an annual event sponsored by the city of
Portland that brings architects, planners, and artists together for
ten days of concentrated work with neighborhood residents and
volunteers. He has traveled extensively in southern Mexico where his
inspiration for community living came from living with traditional
Mayan peoples.
