Before Memmo my notes were scattered across PDFs. Now a workspace pulls everything into one place — I see exactly what's still left to study.
What makes a city alive? What did 20th-century design dreams leave behind?
Along with a series of critical commentaries, this book unveils for the first time Townscape in USA, a previously unpublished manuscript written by Gordon Cullen in the early 1960s.
Best known for Townscape (1961), Cullen brings his incisive, visually attuned, and often wry perspective to six American cities – New York, Pittsburgh, Boston, Chicago, Philadelphia, and Washington, D.C. – providing splendid, semi-prophetic visions of the cities’ destinies, and foreshadowing the inevitable consequences of uncontrolled building development. Cullen constantly reminds us of how urban designers should focus on people and creating a sense of place, and critiquing the rigid visual codes of Beaux-Arts planning and offering a counter-vision rooted in texture, contrast and surprise. Through expressive sketches and spatial observations, he reveals how cities could, and should, offer not only efficiency but delight, not only order but encounter. These visions are supported by a series of drawings, notes and photos taken from Cullen’s archives.
This book is an essential read for architects, planners, and dreamers alike. Addressing today’s debates about human-centred design, the – until now – forgotten manuscript Townscape in USA is a passionate plea to rethink what a city is, and whom it is for.

Memmo's summaries are gold before exams. I don't have to re-read 800 pages two weeks before — just the important parts.
The AI chat has saved me the night before an exam more than once. I just keep asking until I get it — no waiting on a study group to reply.
The quizzes hit exactly what I need to know. Memmo tracks what I get stuck on — so I only practice what's worth it.
Flashcards with spaced repetition are magic. Memmo knows when I'm about to forget something and brings it back.
The AI podcasts are my favorite. I listen on my way to school and get a recap without sitting at a computer.
