Tonight at 6:00, a new exhibit opens at the Museum of Design Atlanta — The Design Prescription: How the Built Environment Affects our Health.

I was very lucky to have an opportunity to contribute to this exhibit and encourage you to check it out. My contribution is a short documentary created by myself and Cathy — 4 Commuters. The documentary chronicles the daily commutes of four people, each of whom use one of four different modes of transportation — a car, transit, feet, and a bicycle.

Over time, we’ll be building the 4 Commuters website to document how 4 average, real or hypothetical commuters come into conflict with one another, and what urban design elements can be used to alleviate those conflicts. We may even get really trendier-than-thou and ask whether, in some cases, it’s a good idea to alleviate modal conflicts.

But in the meantime, go and stop by the MoDA gallery space at Peachtree Center’s Marquis 2 building and check out this new exhibit.
