Ethọ́s Lab

From Street to Plaza with Modular Timber Technologies

We know it’s so important to have parks and open space to meet our friends, relax, play, and have room for other creatures like plants and animals. But public space in cities is limited - particularly in older, built up areas.  One way that cities are approaching this challenge is by transforming streets into plazas.  In Vancouver, to help keep these new plazas beautiful, agreements are made with local groups or businesses to maintain them.

The Connected City

If we want to make the world a more inclusive place, we’ll need to redesign and reshape the places we live to build connections. ⁠The Connected City Spring Break Camp aimed to explore the networks that connect us all.

In Studio 1: Mapping Experiences we asked: How do you travel around the city? How do you feel when you’re traveling? What do you hear? How does transportation affect your sense of connection?
