Streets are important spaces in urban areas and form resilient collective spaces for all of us. Streets are adaptable by their ability to integrate new uses and new technologies. Now and tomorrow. Within the balance of actual and new challenges and demands, street design must be redefined.
In five sessions ´the Future Design of Streets´ will be discussed and explored by 15 guest speakers from various areas and places. What are possible new strategies for street design? Who is using the street space? How can we design to improve streets? And, how do we have to define the design assignment of futures streets?
