Episode 60 – Discussions with Andrés Duany (DPZ)
In Episode 60, Carter talks with Andrés Duany who, along with his wife, Elizabeth Plater-Zyberk, is the founding partner DPZ CoDesign.
DPZ is best known for the “rediscovery” of neighborhood structures which influenced the design of Seaside, the acclaimed project renowned for its traditional town plan, streetscapes, meeting places and buildings. Following up on Seaside, the firm proposed a re-integration of urban components within traditional neighborhood development which became the model for regulation of compact mixed use neighborhood developments throughout the Country.
In this episode you’ll learn:
- What is traditional neighborhood development (TND).
- How Seaside came about and how DPZ approached the planning and design effort.
- Lessons learned from the planning and buildout of Seaside.
- How TND applies to larger master planned developments.
- How TNDs can assist in combating NIMBYism and garner jurisdictional approvals.
