Description

This book is about an imaginative approach to improving our built environment and public spaces
People Making Places is a Yorkshire-based programme that combines creativity with realism. It aims to challenge standard definitions, working methods, and barriers to change. Based at the Orangery, a heritage site in Wakefield, the programme engages an unusually broad range of people in projects across the region.
The book tracks two years of intense activityover 25 events, seminars, workshops and arts-based street transformations, involving professionals and non-experts, schoolchildren and councilors, artists, planners and architects, top practitioners and the general public.
Thoughtful articles discuss the ideas behind the programme, and set it into context of national policy and practice. Fully illustrated, and with a number of contributors including; Will Alsop, Annie Atkins, David Briers, Robert Powell and Alan Simpson, the book also includes design work from Alsop Architects, David Mach, Whitelaw Turkington and others.
People Making Places is lively and essential reading for all those with a professional and vocations interest in the built environment, regeneration, urban design and the arts.
