32 – Jose Sanchez, co-creator of Block'hood computer game

Architect Jose Sanchez is the co-creator of Block'hood , a city-building computer game that runs on real city data. Under his practice, plethora-project (covering architecture and indie game development), he focuses on how play can initiate design practice. In Block'hood, players build cities out of 80 preset block types, and are rewarded for thinking "ecologically" and creating diverse cities. Sanchez wanted the game to be accessible to everyone, not just urban planners or architects, and to ultimately be both a learning tool and fun in its own right. Sanchez's interview is part of our special August focus on Games .
