Transforming the city for play: Hacking and co-crafting urban interventions

As an increasing number of the world’s children live in cities, their rights to play, participate in cultural life and express themselves become urgent matters for sustainable urban development. This project explores new artistic design methods to form public architecture and design for play and recreation and new ways of organizing children’s participation in urban development. Two lines of experimentations are developed: Hacking existing urban structures for play on the go andco-crafting temporal structures of play, farming and urban furnishing.
