TOOLTEST DAY #1 [ THE STORY ]
Everything started in Stockholm, in April 2018... ..when more than a 100 placemakers gathered to..
..work together and discuss the future of..
...a common network of professionals - Placemaking Europe, including people from all over the world! India! Italy!
Slovakia!
Netherlands! Greece!
Bulgaria!
France!
USA!
Germany!
Spain!
And many, many more!
But how can we work together and benefit from being part of Placemaking Europe?
Let’s create a common Toolbox for placemaking!
Great idea! Let’s use the momentum! But we need some ambassadors... anyone?
I am the first!
And me!
Me too!
Let’s rock the Toolbox!
Later this year...
But how we can make an efficient use from the fact that we are located in different place!? Guys, what if we all test the same tool in our own context? Hmm...?
Let’s develop a common concept!?!
Sounds great..like a dream...let’s call it the #TooltestDay!
That way we can improve tools through testing, while learning new techniques!
... and then share and compare results...
...while having fun!
Let’s try to incorporate the ‘Tooltest Day’ as part of Placemaking Week Europe?
And allow everybody to joins, even if they cannot come!
Let’s check the call for tools!
Look at this one ‘Space Sensation’ from ‘Mindspace’ collective
It looks cool! Let’s try it!
Ok, this is how we can do it!
Great news! ‘Mindspace’ are willing to participate in the Tooltest Day as a tool provider.
Later, a webinar was organised in order to receive more details from ‘Mindspace’ regarding the ‘Space sensation’ tool

During the first edition of the ‘Tooltest Day’ initiative, 12 tests of ‘Space sensation’ were conducted in 9 different countries...
