Edits are most welcome. Other postings for Workshop Event 2 are here: Workshop 2 Weblog. Please email your contribution to James Stewart This AHRB-EPSRC Research Cluster brings together designers and scholars to develop resources that address a specific contemporary design problem: making ordinary urban spaces more accessible, friendly and useable ... or, more specifically, to articulate the problematic nature of so-called non-places and their technologies. We experience non-places routinely. They include urban environments such as airports, supermarkets, motorways, hotels, and offices. What is distinctive about non-places? Why are they relevant to design? MORE... You are most welcome to make contact if you wish to be involved in this group. We ran a series of workshops in 2005. Email Richard Coyne or another member of the steering group or support team. The funding period for the Design21 Clusters is officially over, but we will keep this site active, and continue the work on non-place.
