• ‘FOSTERING MEANINGFUL IS DEVELOPING NEIGHBOURHOODS’ DIALOGUE CRUCIAL FOR THRIVING
  Co-creation holds the promise of shaping more socially cohesive living environments. But how do you successfully democratize decision-making in their development? And how do you ensure buildings continue to support an ethos of engagement post-build, while sustainably securing a sense of ownership and belonging for residents? FRAME’s head of content Floor Kuitert discusses the topic with Jiska Gysels, socio-spatial planner at Belgian hands-on research and planning cooperative Endeavour, and Marthijn Pool, cofounder of Space&Matter, an Amsterdam-based design studio specialized in sustainable architecture, circular area development and vision-making.
