Design for Smarter Cities
• Your citizens know more than you. • Don’t separate the design and development process • Embrace self-organization & civic initiative, but help to make the
results sustainable and scalable.• Never rely on consultants that will sell consultancy, not solutions. • Have binding decisions made at the lowest level possible and
actively preach self-governance.• Small, connected systems tend to fail sometimes; large systems will
fail for sure.• Build systems based on reciprocity and transparency. • Reuse existing parts and design your additions for reuse, adding to
the public domain and strengthening its capacity to act and learn.
