About Ujao
Cities speak. But most of us aren’t taught how to listen. Ujao is a space for slowing down and tuning in. We explore how public spaces—streets, markets, benches, corners, lighting, waste systems, signage—shape our lives in ways both visible and invisible. It began with a simple desire: to reconnect with architecture, not through buildings, but through observation. Through noticing the beauty, brokenness, and potential in the everyday spaces around us.

This is just placeholder text. We will change this out later. It’s just meant to fill space until your content is ready. Don’t be alarmed, this is just here to fill up space since your finalized copy isn’t ready yet. Once we have your content finalized, we’ll replace this placeholder text with your real content. Sometimes it’s nice to put in text just to get an idea of how text will fill in a space on your website. Traditionally our industry has used Lorem Ipsum, which is placeholder text written in Latin.

Unfortunately, not everyone is familiar with Lorem Ipsum and that can lead to confusion. I can’t tell you how many times clients have asked me why their website is in another language. There are other placeholder text alternatives like Hipster Ipsum, Zombie Ipsum, Bacon Ipsum, and many more. While often hilarious, these placeholder passages can also lead to much of the same confusion. If you’re curious, this is Website Ipsum. It was specifically developed for the use on development websites.

A Living Notebook for the City
Ujao is where I explore how public spaces shape us, and how we can shape them in return. Through essays, sketches, short thoughts and conversations, I invite you to look again at the spaces we pass through every day.
