Role of public space
1.Public space accepts diversity as a norm
2. Public spaces act as cultural and social transformers of society in relation to
culture, life forming and as attractors for mix of segments of people.
3. Public spaces should be inclusive everyone. They should function as urban hubs
that physically and mentally connect different parts of the city and its inhabitants.

Theoretical approach
We use thoughts from urban theorists pointing to the
relation between the city, its spaces, life forming and the
body.
The idea that an aesthetical and sensory oriented
approach is called for due to the new demands in the
experience city.

Performativity
e square attracts flows from a distance.
High degree of material, spatial and sensory gestures both attracting, distributing and orienting the user. The
plaza allows movement across the space in any possible direction as it is accessible from various angles.

DUBLIN GRAND CANAL PLAZA
The use of the spatial and bodily affective shaping of the physical environment to attract, distribute and
integrate the visitor in the space. The design invites the user to integrate and perform on its stage.

A way of framing interaction.

METHODS AND STRATEGIES FOR URBAN QUALITIES
Performativity is the inclusion of an action, a performance, an event etc. in urban space, which is intended to
in8luence – permanently or temporary a given urban space. In other words performativity is to make
something happen in the urban realm. The performative intervention can be the use of physical or social
elements or the creation of new identity giving narratives. JUUL | FROST Arkitekter

PROEIXAMPLE, BARCELONA
Jardins de la Torre de les Aigües is established by the publicprivate partnership ProEixample.
They initiated the regeneration and development of more than 40 backyards in the neighborhood, Eixample.
Each backyard has its own functions and aesthetical atmospheres.
But all recreational, green semi public urban psaces developed through a parallel initiative.

Performativity is the inclusion of an action, a performance, an event etc. in urban space, which is intended to in8luence –
permanently or temporary other agents in urban space. In other words performativity is to affect and change matters
in the urban realm.
Parallelism is the notion of creating coherence between several places by simultaneously implementing identical
interventions in the urban fabric, physically or socially.
Area strategies covers chosen, limited districts within the city where a given theme or approach is implemented. The
goal is to apply interventions that activate the chosen area as a whole.
Mnemonics is a way to create a collective memory by visually referring to given narratives or signi8iers.
Acupuncture is an accurate intervention that is capable of both activating a larger area than itself or even in8luence an
area different to the one being pierced.

STRATEGIC PLANNING
We propose an integrated and holistic understanding of the complex transformation proceses in the city.
Through strategic tools initiating urban processes,
A new role for the planner: a strategic and proactive coordinator of urban processes
The use of urban architecture and design as strategic planning not as material development.
Thus planning is no longer a form imposed upon urban matter, but is rather strategic tool to be used in the broader
perspective of urban transformation processes.
