Urban designers often strive for "human scale", creating a sense of comforting familiarity. But humans often seek spaces that dwarf our own scale: we visit mountains and oceans for their vastness. A metropolis needs both comfort and a sense of immensity, of being part of something much bigger than any single one of us.
