Creating a pop up park is now everybody's game
(Photo: Thomas Zaar) A new handbook was launched yesterday about citizen-driven city planning in Stockholm. Behind the project are White Arkitekter and ”Fastighetsägarna Stockholm” (the Stockholm office of the Swedish Property Federation) with the common goal of encouraging people to take initiative and breathe life into the urban space.“We want to democratise forgotten areas in the city by creating temporary arenas for meetings and activities, free of charge and open for everyone. We hope this handbook encourages more people to get involved in designing the city’s public areas”, says
