| Summary |
Open urban spaces are an ideal stage for public events. An important prerequisite for their design in an increasingly heterogeneous multicultural cityscape is the relationship between design, use, and social function. The book documents both temporary as well as permanent installations of various kinds - from the open-air courtyard of a museum to the design of a river bank promenade, through to a city park. |

Urbane Freiräume bilden eine ideale Bühne für öffentliche Events. Maßgeblich für deren Planung in einer zunehmend heterogenen, multikulturellen Stadtlandschaft ist das Zusammenspiel von Gestaltung, Nutzung und sozialer Funktion. Das Buch dokumentiert sowohl temporäre als auch dauerhafte Installationen unterschiedlichster Art: vom Freilichthof eines Museums über eine Uferpromenadengestaltung bis hin zum Stadtpark. Die dargestellten Projekte liegen in UK, Deutschland, Schweiz, Spanien, Frankreich, den Niederlanden, den USA, Kanada und Australien. Beiträge international renommierter Experten erörtern die verschiedenen Dimensionen der Gestaltung urbaner Freiräume - von der Planung über den Entwurf bis hin zur Umsetzung und Unterhaltung unter Berücksichtigung funktionaler Anforderungen. |
