The Sidewalk Ballet Field Guide
The Sidewalk Ballet Field Guide is a growing collection of people, organizations, projects, books, ideas and ongoing conversations about cities and the people who shape them. It grows out of the podcast, but extends well beyond it—connecting the people doing the work, the places where it’s happening, and the ideas, experiments and resources worth carrying forward. Think of it as part reference library, part trail of breadcrumbs: a way to follow the conversation wherever it leads.
Explore by type, browse alphabetically or by date, or search for something specific. Follow the tags to discover connections—or explore the map to see where the people, projects and ideas in the Field Guide take us.
The Tokyo Toilet
The Tokyo Toilet brought leading architects and designers together to rethink one of the most ordinary pieces of public infrastructure: the neighborhood restroom. Built across Shibuya, the project uses architecture, accessibility, maintenance, and design to challenge assumptions about public toilets and create facilities people can trust and enjoy.
