Katherine Darnstadt demonstrates in this Public Space Keynote how design can be used to build a community. As the co-director for Architecture for Humanity Chicago Katherine Darnstadt discusses her experiences with the community of Little Village in Chicago and how to transform its' negative space. Believing that these spaces would serve as detriments to the community, they realized that they needed to create a micro intervention on the vacant lots.
Darnstadt describes how a community came together to rally together and managed through a public design competition, along with small acts to create a $0 park and raise over $100,000. From the intersection of policy and design, citizens were able to come together and help in creating a joyful social space.
This story should spark inspiration in citizens to realize the potential of creating public space and community building.
