The pandemic acted as a timely reminder that, in shrinking our world down to our nearby surroundings, we open up our lives to so much more; expanding our friendship groups, making exercise easier to fit in, and doing our bit to help the planet by cutting down on travel and shopping and socialising closer to home. This localisation reflects a concept developed by Professor Carlos Moreno at the Sorbonne University in Paris long before the pandemic arrived. The idea of a ‘15-minute city’, seen as a response to both the environmental crisis and ever-increasing urban expansion, is based on research into how urbanites’ use of time could be reorganised. Moreno believes that life should be localised, and it should take no more Above: Fisherman’s than 15 minutes to get to all ‘daily urban Walk with Crossrail There are numerous necessities’ by foot or bike.
