Day 1. 4 Co-designing Inclusive Environments for Young People
Summary
Play as a Design Tool motivates community participation in the co-design of shared space by asking the future users to model their ideal recreational space using cakes, biscuits and sweets. The co-design process encourages openness, allowing new ideas and perspectives to emerge through exploration and experimentation, helping solve design problems in a fun, inclusive, democratic manner. Cake models scaled into drawings allow the community to realise their ideas and co-refine the outputs into a final design, supported by mood boards. These outputs provide in-depth community-led research co-designed with the local people.
This session will uncover play as a design tool, co-design for young people and community participation.
