Imagine taking a forgotten, grey concrete lot and turning it into a lush, beautiful park that people actually want to visit. It's like giving a 'wake up call' to dead spaces by mixing nature with art and community design. The goal is to make cities feel more alive and breathable while helping the planet.
Cities struggle with neglected, underutilized spaces that contribute to urban decay and lack of biodiversity. These 'dead zones' reduce community well-being and fail to address climate resilience.
A set of 6 pilot sites demonstrating the integration of nature-based solutions and artistic design for public space revitalization.
If you are a city design firm dealing with abandoned urban plots — this project developed a method to integrate nature-based solutions and artistic design that increases property value and community well-being.
If you are a commercial developer dealing with underutilized land — this project developed a way to transform these areas into biodiverse public spaces that attract more foot traffic and residents.
If you are a municipal government dealing with climate change and urban decay — this project developed 6 pilot sites that show how to build resilient, inclusive green spaces.
Based on available project data, specific pricing or cost structures for the solutions are not provided.
The project uses 6 pilot sites as showcases specifically to demonstrate how to replicate and scale these solutions across Europe.
Based on available project data, there is no mention of specific IP or licensing agreements.
The project runs from 2025-06-01 to 2029-05-31.
Integration is achieved through a blend of artistic co-creation and sustainable spatial planning in urban, peri-urban, and rural spaces.
The consortium is diverse and heavily weighted toward practical application, featuring 21 partners from 9 countries. With 6 SMEs and a total industry ratio of 29%, there is a strong commercial presence alongside 10 'Other' organizations and 5 research/university entities, suggesting a focus on implementation rather than just theory.
