Urban Design Invitational
WORK — PROJECT
We invite professionals to help you imagine new possibilities. The Urban Design Invitational is an annual professional workshop that turns community feedback into schemes for more walkable, bikeable and vibrant public spaces. It is the third step in our six-step co-design process.
Our Urban Design Invitational welcomes professionals to spend a day with us. The morning is spent walking, getting to know the neighbourhood and getting acquainted with local priorities, with the help of the Community Portrait. We stop for great local food and hear from local businesses along the way. The afternoon is spent developing 3-5 design ideas that address community priorities. A professional designer then takes these ideas and turns them into a set of Design Schemes. These go back to the community for voting and feedback at the Design Selection Kiosk.
