Public Design Intervention Do-It-Yourself






As part of my research I investigated into the diffrent methods, phenomena and practices of urban intervention. It was amazing to see how many people intervene with the spaces a city holds. If it is because of discontent with the city-planning, because of stupid public design or just to find new ways of expressing oneself. Public Design Interventions are more or less strategic transformations of space, reappropriation of public goods and creative interaction with the public sphere.
The Public Design Intervention DIY Guide is a byproduct of my thesis. It comes with a starter set for uraban guerilla activists and is available from KISD Shop.
