Format is a quarterly magazine that looks at the ways architecture and urban design drive the way we move, think, and occupy space. Each issue is centered around a theme and explores how it is addressed through architecture, design, and the built environment.
This prototype issue is on the theme of data, and discusses how information technology and the abundance of data available to businesses, government, and designers impacts the way we live in and experience the city.
