About the video:

In this eye-opening video, Laura Kriefman redefines how we perceive our urban environments, revealing that our cities are more than just concrete and steel—they’re dancing. From the way light pours through windows to the paths we navigate daily, Laura explains how our public spaces and infrastructure influence our sense of movement far more than any individual performance ever could.

Embracing the title of “architectural choreographer,” she challenges us to see the hidden rhythm in our cities. Discover the fascinating concept of cities as living, breathing entities that move with us every day.
