A Cultural Space
Urban design involves coming up with the ideas that work for many different people.
Years 9-13
This workshop will focus on the creative process with students developing a concept for a cultural space for their city. What is happening in and around this part of the city? What do people think about the place? They will work as a group to bring their ideas together to redesign the space, thinking about how their design could improve it, what culture means and how they could make it a more successful space to be.

- Session concept: Developed with PLACED Ambassador Graham Marshall, Maxim Urban Design
- Feedback: ‘Very creative. Students enjoyed it &wanted to work hard.’ Teacher with Year 10 students
