Conclusions public spaces in neighbourhoods

A public space is more than a plaza:

Use the public space as incubator for

neighbourhood improvement

Involve the inhabitants/ neighbours

and let them own their space

Start small and prove the

improvements of the daily live of the

inhabitants

to improve quality of life

Intervene temporary to start the

unthinkable
