Summary
Furniture can be reused, appliances repaired, and clothes mended. Is there any way to “repair” a community? Students from PolyU Social Design @SociallyYoursSociallyMine @polyudesignug will hold a 3-day program at AIRSIDE @airsidehk from May 17 -19 to share their community design projects they have been working on for eight months:
Countryside: How can urban habitants practice agriculture side by side with organic farmers? How are the tensions between rural residents and buffaloes resolved? -
Housing: How can residents of transitional social housing be connected? How might the daily imagination of people living in subdivided units be nurtured? Consumption space: What sort of relationships can we construct in small shopping centers? What about the larger shopping malls?
Place: What is “non-place”? Is it possible to build a community in a seemingly faceless place?
In addition to multiple workshops, about 100 zines will be displayed on-site to share our stories of Social Design with everyone! Walk-ins are welcome.
