520 |a Scale in cities is relative and absolute. It has the ability to make us feel at home in the world or alien from it; connected or disconnected.

Touching the City explores how scale is manifested in cities, exploring scale in buildings, in the space between them and in their details. It asks how scale makes a difference. Travel.
