Exploring Everyday Streets
STREETSPACE 2018
WORKSHOP Ljubljana 2018
StreetSpace is a research and teaching project at Queen's University Belfast, led by Dr Agustina Martire, which seeks to understand the significance of local mixed use streets, by analysing their physical, historical and experiential aspects. This multidisciplinary and international project aims to provide an alternative way of planning, preserving and developing streets.
Workshop - Ljubljana City Center Local Community Office – 24-25 October 2018
A two-day workshop to explore the complexity of Poljanska Cesta in Ljubljana. We will explore the street, its histories, narratives, fabric and uses; and the potential for projects that provide fair, accessible and diverse streets for all. Based on the methods developed in the previous workshops in Belfast, Naples and London, and the design studios in the Masters of Architecture, we will develop a series of activities that will lead us to new maps of Poljanska Cesta.
