“Urbanized,” another great documentary from Gary Hustwit, the “Helvetica” guy

After tackling graphic design and typography with Helvetica and industrial design with Objectified, filmmaker Gary Hustwit’s latest documentary is Urbanized, covering urban design, city planning, and cities in general.

Gary has already announced a bunch of screening dates, with more on the way. (In the meantime, Helvetica and Objectified are both on iTunes and on Netflix streaming.) And here’s the Urbanized trailer:
