Relearning Place: REdefine

The Glass-House Community Led Design is a national charity dedicated to connecting people with the design of their places, and connecting design with people. For over two decades, we have supported communities, organisations and networks to work collaboratively to shape buildings, spaces, homes and neighbourhoods.The Glass-House sees design not only as a tool for creating great places, but also as a way to connect people and empower them with enhanced confidence, skills and a greater sense of agency. We provide hands-on support and training, share knowledge and learning, and inspire new thinking and debate through action research, events and resources.

The Glass-House Community Led Design

REdefine is part of the 2022/23 Glass-House WEdesign event series, Relearning Place, in collaboration with Mackintosh School of Architecture

Relearning Place: WEdesign 2022/23

Change is a dynamic constant in our lives. Through the Relearning Place event series, we will explore the concept of relearning and how this approach might encourage people to think differently and to affect culture, policy and practice. Join us!

Come join us as we redefine Glasgow as a Feminist City to celebrate International Women’s Day 2023. In October 2022, Glasgow City Council became the first UK city to back a proposal which will see Scotland’s largest city make women central to all aspects of planning, public realm design, policy development and budgets. We invite you to join our event, where we will be working with students from the <a href="https://www.gsa.ac.uk/about-gsa/key-information/our-structure/mackintosh-school-of-architecture/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Mackintosh School of Architecture</a> to explore the principals and theories behind creating a feminist urban realm, and how these can impact and redefine the city today.This Glass-House WEdesign event will be an active space where students, practitioners, policy-makers and citizens work together with The Glass-House, <a href="https://missinginarchitecture.net/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Missing in Architecture</a> and students and tutors from the <a href="https://www.gsa.ac.uk/about-gsa/key-information/our-structure/mackintosh-school-of-architecture/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Mackintosh School of Architecture</a>, to explore and co-design creative methods of engagement and collaborative placemaking that can help us redefine our places.This is a free event, but places are limited.This event, in partnership with Mackintosh School of Architecture at Glasgow School of Art and Missing in Architecture, will take place in-person at <a href="https://agile-city.com/building/civic-house/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Civic House</a> in Glasgow.Further event details will be confirmed in the New Year.WEdesign is kindly supported by the <a href="https://www.ovearupfoundation.org/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Ove Arup Foundation</a>.<h3></h3><h3>About the series</h3>Change is a dynamic constant in our lives and through the Relearning Place event series we will explore the concept of relearning and how this approach might encourage people to think differently and to affect culture, policy and practice in design and placemaking. Through a series of online and in-person events, Relearning Place explores the role of communities in design and placemaking and how the recent changes in political, economic, socio-cultural and environmental influences are altering how we respond, relate to and adapt the places where we live, work and play.So how do we reconsider what we think we know about place and placemaking as we adapt to external factors of change?What do we have to unlearn to enable us to relearn? Is relearning a continual process for places?Relearning Place is The Glass-House 2022/23 WEdesign series which combines free, interactive events and co-design activities taking place in person in Glasgow, Sheffield, London, Newcastle, with a range of online events and think pieces.
