We are an urban projects start-up focusing on the pedestrian and we believe in active design and walkability as a way to improve the quality of life for all. We involve society in the creation of public spaces and offer new experiences for the people to interact with their cities. 


We are commited both locally and globally in three major fronts:

Inspiration, Education and Action.

Graduated from TU Delft in the Netherlands and a Masters in Urban Design from the Univesity of Sydney, Australia in 2007.

He takes care of the virtual and international part of Urb-i, in addition to the urban studies, collaborative designs and collaborators program.

Paulo is our journalist who opened his eyes  to the questions of urbanism. Initially he contacted Urb-i through the Before-After project and showed interest in improving the cities. Graduated from PUC University São Paulo in 2002, where he did courses in  locution and screenwriter for cinema and TV series. After 14 years in the media, he decided to experiment direct communication with people as a way to engage them in the transformation of the public space. In addition to registering our activities in videos, he intermediates the dialogue between the public, private and society sectors.
