Place Shaping Conference – Workshop 1 – Finding the spatial character of a place
Place Shaping Conference – Workshop 1 – Finding the spatial character of a place
During this workshop we will look at an example village /town and through maps and photos, participants will identify the elements that give it a unique character, and think about how these could guide future development, design guidance and neighbourhood plans.
This workshop is for people who want to get inside the process of understanding the way places evolve. By picking up pens and talking through drawing we’ll work through three micro workshops:
- Building a brief for a place shaping vision
- Analysing a place through maps and photographs
- Using this to imagine the future
Over the hour there will be a mix of tools & techniques, opportunities to make a mess & try things out, and a chance to understand the ways different stakeholders can come together around place shaping.
