Samenvatting

This booklet shows the urban metabolism of five different cities around the globe. From small, Venice, to extra large, New York. We took the city as the human body; integral, dependent on multiple organs and based on comprehensive flows. Mobility, typology, nature and history go hand in hand in the total package that shaped each city to what it is nowadays.
