We investigate how cities emerge, organise and transform as complex socio-spatial systems shaped by information, interaction and inequality. By integrating analytical, computational and theoretical perspectives, we seek to understand how urban structures shape movement, perception and social relations, and how cities can better support more adaptive forms of collective life.

Our research
1. Urban Formation, Spatial Information and Urban Economies
We investigate how cities emerge and evolve as expressions of social, economic and technological forces, encoding information across spatial cultures, urban economies and everyday interaction.


2. Urban Form, Liveability and Environmental Experience
Urban form is something we move through, sense and inhabit. We examine how cities express and support social life, movement and environmental experience.
