Mobilising change: towards collaborative design

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

The Glass-House WE design 2018/19 showcase & debate
Interactive exhibition | from 6:30 to 9pm Discussion & debate | 7-8pm
 
 As part of our recent event series, The Glass-House have been working with partners and communities across different UK cities to explore the role of collaborative design processes in shaping places. We’ve been demystifying terminology and experimenting with hands-on, people and place-centred activities. Join us on 26 March for our showcase exhibition and debate, where we will share the proposals, design prototypes, co-produced maps and the voices of participants we’ve gathered along the way. As with all WE Design events, this will be an interactive space where we invite you to contribute your own ideas, stories and views about collaborative design. The discussion and debate will reflect on our approaches and findings from the series, engaging our audience in exploring the role we can all play in shifting culture, policy and practice towards mobilising a more collaborative approach to placemaking. This event is free to attend, but spaces are limited. Please register to reserve your place.

About the series
Community-led and community-engaged design are increasingly part of the narrative of development and regeneration, but what does this really mean in practice for those involved? How can we navigate the language and various approaches of people-centred design and ensure that these processes enable agency for local people? We Design events are active spaces, in which participants work together to develop ideas, proposals and prototypes which challenge their own and other people’s perceptions of design and placemaking.
