People know cities, but they often don’t really know or understand the nuts and bolts that build them: urban design, planning, development patterns. Communicating these concepts and processes to a wide audience can be difficult, even for a knowledgeable person like Matt Tomasulo, who’s pursuing a dual master’s degree in landscape architecture and urban planning from North Carolina State and UNC Chapel Hill, respectively. His own parents couldn’t really wrap their heads around it.

“They never understood what I was in school for,” Tomasulo says.
