for our daily life are developed in interplay with the lived life. The focus is how urban strategies can contribute to the development of public spaces that are future proof, multiple and inclusive meeting places for various population groups.
The authors re-read theorist's thoughts, analyze known places and withdraw new insights from their texts and physical manifestations. The book constitutes a movement from thoughts over case studies to actions - a journey that results in 5 different development strategies to be pursued by urban planners and developers. The outcome is new operational tools for urban strategies and development of public spaces that result in unique and attractive cities - regardless of size and location.
