Updn: 88 Spins with Bill Pechet: 88 Spins with Bill Pechet - Paperback

Neither an architect nor a landscape architect, Pechet might best be described as an urban acupuncturist.

As a keen observer of interactions between animate beings and inanimate things, Pechet has sensitively mended public spaces in Canada and the United States for decades, designing strategic and delightful interventions in public parks and plazas, waterfronts and streetscapes, LRT stations and cemeteries. As a beloved teacher, he has also educated generations of architecture and design students at the University of British Columbia to approach their work with the same sense of curiosity and adventure he brings to his own.
