'Doing It Differently' Has Gone To Print!
We’re really excited about Kylie’s upcoming Urban Trends book - ‘Doing It Differently’. The first of a 3 part series, this book looks at a range of creative and innovative solutions to the challenges of living in cities. The book covers a whole range of trends including Collaborative Consumption, Collaborative Urbanism, The Pop Up Movement and Creative Catalyst, providing a snapshot of collaborative efforts across the globe.
We had the book posted up on Pozible, which was a great success. Not only did we reach over the funding goal, but the project supporters were able to help to spread the word! ... And funnily enough we talk about crowdfunding in the book too.
I'll leave you with a few fun facts from the book...
· Oklahoma’s Mayor has put his city on a diet aiming to lose 1,000,000 pounds of people fat through their new healthy city strategies
· People who live in car dependent neighbourhoods spend 16% more on transportation than their peers in neighbourhoods with other options
· 5 of the USA's saddest cities are in Florida
Stay tuned to find out how to get your copy!
