Thinkspace: Carolyn Steel

A lecture by the leading thinker on food and cities as part of the Thinkspace series.

Carolyn Steel is a leading thinker on food and cities. She is the author of the award-winning Hungry City: How Food Shapes Our Lives (2008) and Sitopia: How Food Can Save the World (2020). Her concept of sitopia, or food-place (from the Greek sitos, food + topos, place) has gained broad recognition across a wide range of fields in design, ecology, academia and the arts.

Thinkspace is a new lecture series organised by the Farrell Centre and SPACE Architects to mark 70 years of the practice. It asks how places acquire their character and who gets a say in what they become.
