I love that, I love to walk and bike to everywhere I can.

What that means?

Paris is experimenting with the idea of a 15-minute city. Decentralized, mini-hubs where everything you need is within a 15-minute walk or bike ride.

School and work and eating out and groceries and health services and a library, accessible with 15 minutes on foot, bike, scooter or wheelchair.

This is the kind of a city I dream to live…a very walkable city.

This project is influenced by urbanist Carlos Moreno.

Carlos Moreno is a Franco-Colombian scientist and university professor. A specialist in intelligent control of complex systems, his works are accompanied by activities in the innovation ecosystem around promotion of research and transfer of technology to industry, SMEs and start-ups, and divulgation of science.
