About The Book

<p><em>Recoded City</em> examines alternative urban design planning and architecture for the other 90%: namely the practice of participatory placemaking a burgeoning practice that co-author Thomas Ermacora terms ‘recoding’. In combining bottom-up and top-down means of regenerating and rebalancing neighbourhoods affected by declining welfare or struck by disaster this growing movement brings greater resilience.</p><p>Recoded City sheds light on a new epoch in the relationship between cities and civil society by presenting an emerging range of collaborative solutions and distributed governance models. The authors draw on their own fresh research of global pioneers forging localist design strategies public-realm interventions and new stakeholder dynamics. As the world becomes increasingly digital and virtual a myriad of online tools and technological options is becoming available. These give unprecedented co-creation opportunities to communities and professionals alike yielding the benefits of a more open – DIY – society. </p><p>Because of its close engagement with people place and local identity the field of participatory placemaking has huge untapped potential. Responding to the challenges of the Anthropocene era <i>Recoded City</i> is for decision-makers developers and practitioners working globally to make better and more liveable cities.</p>
