Remote Places, Public Spaces

Das SMOTIES-Netzwerk ist eine Partnerschaft von zehn Designhochschulen, Forschungszentren, Kreativagenturen und nationalen Verbänden. Jeder Partner wählte einen kleinen, abgelegenen Ort in seinem Land aus, der von der Gestaltung kultureller und kreativer Regeneration im öffentlichen Raum und in Zusammenarbeit mit lokalen Akteuren profitieren soll. Das Projekt ist Teil des Human-Cities-Netzwerks, einer Plattform für den interdisziplinären Austausch, die sich mit der Verbesserung der Lebensqualität öffentlicher Innen- und Außenräume befasst und durch partizipatives Design innovative Prozesse für den sozialen Zusammenhalt anstößt.
