This is our brief.
This is our site.
This is us jumping in our site.
This is a man sitting next to our site.
This is urban fill.
This is the process we did today.
This is our team.
We are all different people and the tricky part of this project is to make one thing. (or bunch of things)
It’s the problem with public space, this expectation that we should all agree on a safe and civil environment for everyone. In trying to please everyone, you risk either pleasing no-one or just making beige, no-place space.
We are already committed to layers and layers, and what happens when you design with disagreement and diversity and discovery?
Our process so far has been about splitting then coming back together, different teams into different depths then messy conversations to connect us. Perhaps the most pervasive bit is that the everyday, ticking of the clock, windy cold and sunny patches are the vices that will eventually glue something.
Not sure yet, but we can attest to all that our process is making lots of ideas and occupations, making public space through fill.
