How can design facilitate collaboration in the city and move towards more unified, sustainable and democratic lifestyles?

a mor E C O L L A B O R AT I V E cit y Within the context of Lille 2020, World Design Capital, the Maison POC Collaborative City explores more than a hundred local and global projects as a way of identifying emerging visions of sharing, mutual aid and cooperation. Modern lifestyles are focused solely on the individual, solutions are increasingly personalised, algorithms are becoming more and more targeted, mentalities tend to be individualistic, and today, socialisation is done at a distance‌ While the whole world is still in shock and trying to figure out how it can learn from the health crisis in order to rebuild itself, the design challenge of for collaborative cities is to restore the collective, regenerate common goods, find the community again, encourage mutual aid. This publication looks back on two years of research, dialogue and co-design work carried out by Maison POC Collaborative City’s curatorial team around a hundred projects of the territory, the public, private and citizen actors who have carried them out and the designers who attended them. It combines the territory’s POC with those of DESIS labs1 in

design schools and universities around the world, with the design of doing and living together in the European cities of the URBACT networks2. It shows how the activation of a set of projects selected within the framework of Lille Metropole 2020, World Design Capital, constitute a form of acupuncture of the territory, of transformation of a complex system of interrelated actors through a multitude of design projects, from which emerge fifteen new types of collaboration and which constitute models to inspire the design of a more collaborative city. Finally, this research for projects, which started long before the lock-down, also explores how the health crisis is “redesigning” our world and how design will take an active part in it. Accordingly, each of the 15 emerging themes were partially rewritten. We chose to leave the original text and add corrections in the margins in order to highlight how collaboration in the city is changing. François Jégou

The DESIS network, Design for Social Innovation and Sustainability, aims to use the knowledge and experience of more than fifty design school and university labs around the world in order to co-create, with local, regional and international partners, scenarios and solutions for more sustainable, resilient and inclusive lifestyles.

DESIGN Acupuncture OF THE TERRITOry François Jégou, Strategic Design Scenarios Curator of the Maison POC Collaborative City

Does everyone design? Over the last 10 years, the city’s main actors have gradually become familiar with the so-called design-driven approaches, that is, being guided by a design approach. Design thinking, despite its reductive representation1 of the design process, is widely disseminated as an innovation and management strategy within companies, but also within public authorities and civil society. Today, within a project’s process, it is almost common to talk about user-centred approaches, user expertise, co-creation with stakeholders, experimentation, mock-ups, testing or rapid prototyping: design jargon is an integral part of project’s process vocabulary, even if its related practices are not always well established.

1 Foucher J. 2017.Design Thinking : Dessein et Dessin, Place Publique www. communication-publique.fr/articles_pp/design-thinking-le-dessein-et-le-dessin/

2 INFU Innovation Futures www.sustainable-everyday-project.net/innovation-futures/

16

In addition to its diffusion, the design approach often aims to actively involve stakeholders in the process. It tends to take on a more enabling position: design usually goes hand in hand with co-developing the project with the client, sharing tools and methods to co-construct together and taking ownership over the design process


so as to empower stakeholders in terms of innovation. This singular posture echoes both values of general interest, inclusion and empowerment valued by design, and more open, participative and diffuse vectors of innovative transformation2. Consequently, in an event like Lille Metropole 2020, World Design Capital, whose spirit is to widely disseminate design practices, in an inclusive manner rather than in a selective manner, the entire region becomes involved in design. As the event’s success is conditioned by the emergence of the greatest number of projects using design, we can deplore the fact that many of them label as design any approach that is somewhat different from classic project developments, using different creative techniques, involving users and experimenting. The economic actors’ appetite for design interventions generates a market and, at the same time, the spontaneous emergence of a host of providers: co-design facilitators, design thinking experts and trainers in design techniques, often without any of them having any real training or experience in design. This collateral phenomenon is reminiscent of the rebound effects observed when the Cité du Design in Saint-Etienne was created: the announcement of the construction of this new institution, devoting the city to design, led to the appearance of design Hairdressers, design Kebabs, etc. in the surrounding neighbourhood. Today, after twenty years of International Design Biennials and the Cité’s influence, design has penetrated deep into the territory and has become a new norm for local actors. In the same way, and beyond the impression that suddenly everyone is doing design or claims to do so, an event like Lille 2020, World Design Capital, accelerates the design impregnation in the area and within its actors. The way Lille Metropolis proposed its candidature already represents an original design, aimed above all at this im17


pregnation: unlike the World Design Organisation’s mechanism of labelling cities for their design achievements, Lille Metropolis proposed to use an a priori label as a lever to put design at the service of a territory in which it had not yet developed to the point of being recognised as a world capital in this field.

“an event like L ille 2 0 2 0 , W orld D esign C apital , accelerates t h e design impregnation in t h e area and wit h in its actors ” It is still far too early to assess the transformative effect of this strategy on the way local actors work – even more now with the huge pause ongoing projects have suffered due to the health crisis – but in view of the projects brought together in the Maison POC Collaborative City, it can be said that the participatory design methodologies characteristic of design approaches are becoming common practice within private actors as well as within local authorities and civil society. “Nothing for me without me” as the saying goes: nothing that concerns me should be carried out without my personal involvement! And this ongoing evolution, observed in the sample of around a hundred projects in the territory of the Maison POC Collaborative City, is a good sign and certainly guarantees better quality in a country like France, too often pinpointed for its top-down approaches, its hierarchical and excluding processes, cut off from stakeholders and disconnected from users!

“ participator y design met h odologies c h aracteristic of design approac h es are becoming common practice ”

18


And what does design do? The 500+ project goals triggered by Lille 2020, World Design Capital, had to demonstrate a type of design approach to be recognised as such to. A 3-day design diagnosis was organised for private actors with no experience or means in the field. The setting up of a Design Lab within the administration of the European Metropolis of Lille provided design resources for MEL’s services and the territory’s local authorities. In view of these measures, what contributions and postures of design were triggered? About a hundred projects, out of the 500 initiatives, were selected to be included in the Maison POC Collaborative City, specifically for their cooperation, mutual aid, sharing, etc. qualities. They stand out either for their collaborative processes implemented throughout the project, or for their results, favouring doing and living together, or for both. They highlight the way in which design fits into a process involving multiple, often heterogeneous actors, and how stakeholders are put in synergy. These projects, therefore, do not represent a sample that isolates clearly what design is, which tends on the contrary to “merge” into a broader system of skills and interaction between actors. For us, this strong integration of design is a guarantee of quality and relevance, and it is from this point of view that we observe two opposing attitudes to design in the projects brought together in the Maison POC Collaborative City: on the one hand, design interventions seem to focus their efforts on listening to stakeholders, on the commitment of all players, the understanding of a complex situation or problem sometimes at the risk of getting lost or of fading in cyclical micro-adjustments, of simple improvements (low hanging fruits), of incremental innovations, easy to get accepted, but without ever succeeding in producing a qualitative leap, a significant discontinuity capable of making a difference in the face of the ecological, social and economic crises that cities face. 19


Another group of design interventions seem, almost in opposition to the first, to be rushing to formulate a radical solution, without precedent, a breakthrough innovation, promising in terms of margin for progress but representing a leap in the void, an innovation for the sake of innovation, at the risk of lacking relevance in the face of the complexity of the problem or the support of stakeholders.

“ design w h ic h tends on t h e contrar y to “ merge ” into a broader s y stem of skills and interaction between actors ”

Proofs of the future... Beyond this apparent polarisation between a design focused on project facilitation and a more radical design, the territorial design operation triggered by Lille 2020, World Design Capital seems to make sense when we consider it as a whole, without trying to assess it project by project. The multiple POC convened in the region are projects in experimentation. They anticipate possibilities and sketch out a future in the making in the territory. Creating a POC, a proof of concept, implies the materialisation of an idea into a scenario, a model or a prototype, in order to concretise it enough so that it becomes testable and it is possible to confront it with the reality of uses and users, while still leaving open enough the way in which it will take shape. This materialisation exists as a “concrete hypothesis”, as an “anticipation of its future potential” and once confirmed in a POC, it becomes an emerging “proof of the future”. Taken together, the POC initiated by Lille 2020, World 20


Design Capital, represent experiments of “developing visions “. They are what foresight calls weak signals of an emergent future. The POC from Lille Metropole resonate with the POC from abroad, coming from Europe and all the rest of the world, in order to highlight fifteen new emerging forms of collaboration that will be presented in detail in this publication and that constitute models to inspire the design of a more collaborative city.

“ t h e P O C represent e x periments of “ developing visions ” . T h e y are w h at foresig h t calls weak signals of an emergent future .”

Acupuncture of the territory Finally, the activation of a multitude of projects through the candidature for Lille 2020, World Design Capital, cannot go without evoking the concept of transforming a territory through an acupuncture of projects that were developed in 20103, 4 to discuss how design can act notably on transition issues on a larger scale than it usually operates. This design, as an acupuncture of the territory, seems to present a good framework for analysis. Let us recall that the metaphor of acupuncture has been used by urban planners and architects5 to represent very localised types of interventions in complex systems such as a city. In contrast to this interpretation, what we mean here is a systemic transformation that goes beyond the benefits associated with each localised project. The activation of a reduced number of very specific acupuncture points chosen according to the principles of traditional Chinese medicine allows to obtain a systemic benefit for the whole patient. By analogy, local projects activated in the territory of the Metropolis of Lille, if they have been judiciously chosen to enter into synergy, they are likely 21


to “make a system”, to enter into resonance with each other and to produce an effect that goes well beyond the sum of each one of the projects. This design of an acupuncture of the territory is likely to respond to the antagonism already mentioned between the low margins of progress of a type of design that facilitates incremental projects and the lack of operationality of a more radical design: the acupuncture strategy represents a combination of a series of more attainable incremental projects in order to obtain a much more significant margin of progress through a multiplied effect. It also responds to several major challenges. First of all, to obtain a systemic change on a territorial scale by operating only on a reduced number of localised projects and therefore through an economy of means that the current difficult economic situation calls for. Then, to constitute a dynamic of ascending transformations proceeding progressively through opportunities, trial and error, rather than betting on successive waves of large top-down development programs.

“ t h e acupuncture strateg y represents a combination of a series of more attainable incremental projects in order to obtain a muc h more significant margin of progress t h roug h a multiplied effect ”

If here, the vision for the territory is to encourage the emergence of a more collaborative city, the incubation of all types of projects activated by the World Design Capital has made it possible to observe a multitude of diversified initiatives, to identify those most likely to be the bearers of new cooperation patterns, enabling mutual aid 22


between actors who used to ignore each other, facilitating ways of living and doing together, etc. The work of the commission, seen as an operation of acupuncture design of the territory, sought to see each project as a potential acupuncture point, to extrapolate from these, meridians along which the vital energy described by Chinese medicine is supposed to circulate. It is these fifteen lines of force that we are here to discuss, all of which are principles for a more collaborative city, guidelines likely to inspire project leaders and designers in the definition of the best acupuncture points in the Lille metropolitan area, as well as in other territories.

DENSE CITY How is spatial design able to encourage copresence, encounters, relationships and, ultimately, collaboration?

In order to facilitate “living together” we need places where we can live together, where we can meet each other, opportunities to meet people we do not usually meet. In the region of Fives-Hellemmes-Mons there used to be plenty of cafés where people met each other. Today they are almost all

gone, so instead, you get Café Nomade every month. It works as a facilitator for meetings and conviviality: people who register do not know each other and they do not know where they will go. The mobile café, soon to be equipped with a counter on wheels, is an invitation to get surprised and to live a social experience.

The Institute of Motor Education Dabbadie aims to create a unique meeting place between the disability world and the ordinary world. A co-working space, handifablab, artist residence, exhibition space, restaurant and seminar space: La grande maison, an old mansion that is part of the establishment, experiments with “universal” arrangements that encourage working together. The place’s design challenge is to facilitate the reception, meeting and collaboration between all the different audiences who will meet there, along with the 200 children with disabilities it supports. The Fabrique Saillysienne is a meeting place for the commune Sailly-Lez-lannoy’s citizens, a place where you can propose ideas and put them into action through co-construction with elected representatives, acting as facilitators. As time goes by, the results emerge in all communal fields and multiply: twinning, participative gardens, collective 28

In Cluj in Romania, the programme Urban Living Rooms sets up domestic spaces in public places: living rooms, kitchens, bedrooms... in order to encourage encounters and conversations between 31

As part of the measures of social distancing in public spaces, the city of Milan and its Urban Lab are removing parking spaces and turning them into socialisation areas, accelerating the municipality’s “Open Places” programme, aimed at developing soft mobility and re-appropriating public spaces through the transformation of streets, crossroads, pavements… Barcelona’s “Superblocs”, wherein one out of every two streets is reserved to soft mobility, wishes to reconcile the vision of dense and diversified urban spaces in the post-pandemic 32

new normal. The project Superilles+, in charge of developing superblocs’ social dimension, explores ways to reconcile density and fluidity, access to services and public transport reduction. The proximity offered by this dense urban-scape strengthens the social fabric and allows communities to gather and organise. The design of a more collaborative city needs to imagine new typologies of formal and informal, permanent and temporary places that encourage encounters between populations that cross paths everyday without really seeing each other, and the inclusion of vulnerable, marginalised and different crowds. It must re-accommodate socialisation beyond the conditions of physical health distancing.

35


How can the design of collaborative neighbourhood services, neighbourhood concierges and local communities to connect populations that live side by side or cross paths, but often ignore each other?

For instance, how do you make a social housing unit that incorporates community entertainment and inclusion of the vulnerable, the ageing and the disabled? The system’s key lies in La Voisinerie and Maïté Malet’s design of a third place “café-canteen-concierge service”. It has everything conventional Public Housing could wish for: a “neighbourhood canteen” to grab a bite to eat in a family atmosphere, have a drink with neighbours and find 5 € meal deals fitting the needs of the community. It’s a multifunctional space on the building’s ground floor which hosts a monthly hairdressing salon, sewing workshops, community association events... The layout is made of modular furniture, designed without a specific target group in order to promote gatherings of people with diverse aspirations. Dishes are bought at Emmaüs, adding to the family atmosphere. A 36

The idea of a “neighbourhood concierge” is under a 6-month experimentation in 4 different neighbourhoods of the Metropolis. Many households, including low-resource and energy poor households, do not receive the support to which they are entitled for eco-renovations. “Brico-concierge”, a local and ambulant concierge service, offers small home repairs and energy-saving system installations. These small services are just an excuse to establish trust and help families in need to request financing for high-quality constructions consistent with the household’s income. In Shanghai, the project Doorman Room 2.0 explores how concierge lodges, typically found at the entrance of gated communities, could become a resource for its residents. The project, stimulated the health crisis, explores how these concierges and the premises they occupy at virtually every street corner could be a resource for the 38

How does design help to reshape local services by listening to users, developing with them the best way to meet their expectations and imagining digital as an enrichment of socialisation?

“At the University of Lille, they have developed a project on disability that is organised as an inclusive project since the beginning: their philosophy is that it is not the people who are disabled but it’s

the environment that is disabling! So it’s the researchers, students, disabled and non-disabled staff, working all together on some kind of big collective investigation.”

45


Cooperating for a non-disabling environment @Université de Lille It is not the people who are disabled but the environment that is disabling: #GuliversCampus contributes to spatial justice.

“Yes I’ve heard about the camproject Gulivers pus! And apparently they are creating an app that serves everyone: for people with permanent disabilities, motor disabilities, visual disabilities, old people with limited mobility…” 46

“And that goes for everyone: if you’ve broken your leg or if you’re pregnant or even if you have to carry a heavy object... Everyone can contribute to the development of the map by pointing out holes in sidewalks, stairs that are way too steep... and tips and tricks: where to go to avoid obstacles, when to be careful…”

“In fact, the app kind of embodies the will of inclusion itself: everyone contributes and everyone benefits from it!”


“I also know of another somehow similar example, in the city of Gijón in Spain, where they have created Card4all, a single access card for all their public services: it allows citizens, tourists and businesses to have access to a whole range of services and resources in the city, and even for payments. Besides, it allows to establish user profiles, to better match citizens’ needs with public policies…”

“Mmmm... if we are sure that all this remains anonymous, then yes, it does allow for effective follow up and the continuous improvement of services…”

“In Villeneuve d’Ascq, you find CRÉAlab, which is the “INSPE’s pedagogical innovation lab” and it’s also a good example of integration between face-to-face and the digital : there is the MiniLab, the physical space, where teachers come to create mathematical games together, models to explain the sciences, geography models, story boxes…” 47


Reinventing teaching @INSPE VilleneuveD’Ascq The MiniLab experiments with activities of an educational object-creation lab and foreshadows the INSPE’s future #CRÉAlab in Villeneuve d’Ascq.

“And then there is the virtual space, to encourage meetings and exchanges, to provide tools, and to support projects for the creation and manufacture of educational objects…” 48

“Besides, I don’t know if you know this, but during the lock-down, CRÉAlab continued to work online, to guide the community of teachers to shift to distance learning, to create pedagogical challenges to be carried out at home, like this game about lock-down or how to make a model of a breathing device.”

”You can clearly see how a well balanced device can switch easily from offline to online. And, in the same way, a project like the Recovery CoLabs in Milan have been completely transformed with the limitations of the lockdown…”

“But originally it’s a set of services and institutions that work on mental health and collaborate to change their practices, so it all happens face-to-face, right?”

“Yes, but they redesigned all the online services to keep in touch with patients during the health crisis: online classes, virtual theatre, peer-to-peer support, video capsules, and so on. They experimented with a lot of ideas that would have generated a lot of resistance under normal circumstances. But now these online innovations are seen as an improvement of the faceto-face CoLabs and will continue to be…”

greater collaboration in the city benefits from the rapid digitalisation, driven by the constraints and the experience of confinement, as an opportunity to rethink the balance between face-to-face and distance meetings, to achieve something that is more sustainable, both socially and environmentally.

Anti-parking or anti-terrorist reinforced concrete barriers have invaded the city. These large blocks, being quite difficult to handle, stigmatise urban areas in reconstruction like hyper centers.In an attempt to make the most out of them, citizens occasionally turn them into benches or walls to bounce balls… The EcoNeighbourhood of the Union between the cities of Roubaix and Tourcoing is testing the idea of adding an aesthetic quality to these concrete barriers, attracting new uses and bringing people together... The concrete barriers are integrated into a vivid graphic reinterpreta-

Would fun and colourful urban circuits motivate people to walk and do a little more exercise every day? Could this reduce stress and cognitive fatigue? The project Playful City seeks to explore exactly these questions. Two test circuits have been created on the campus of the University of Lille in an attempt to measure the pleasure produced during

exercise. Students, staff, researchers, artists and designers worked together to create colourful and engaging paths, stimulating and easy to follow. Is it enough to rediscover the pleasure of doing the 30 daily minutes of moderate activity recommended by the World Health Organisation? How long before people become jaded with these surprising circuits? Do “playful cities” change behaviour or do they just add noise to the urban environment? The rest of the Playful City research program will with no doubt answer these questions. Today, the question of people flow in public spaces takes on an additional colour with the health crisis.

In Beijing, the project Life Circles explores the idea of collecting anonymously real-time data on the movement of people in public space, along with information about the accessibility to nearby shops and services. As some kind of “Pedestrian Waze”, the map “15 minutes around the corner” allows, beyond temporary constraints of physical distance, to avoid crowds and queues, make walking around the city more fluid and preserve the benefits

and quality of life, stressed by the pandemic. It imagines and establishes a new fluidity that combines distributed proximity, encounters without overcrowding, spontaneous and organised mutual aid.

MAKING SOCIETY

58


How does design support third places of working together and the emulation between its different users, while experimenting new ways of living in society?

Third places are spaces to be invented, tested and lived collectively. They enable people to share a space, work differently, create an activity, develop ideas, experiment with services, test uses... and to make their desires for an ecological and societal transition a reality. La Compagnie des Tiers-Lieux establishes links between the territory’s third places through a route map that lets you discover all these unique and complementary places. For example, how do you build a more humane, lively city, in collaboration and complimentary to major urban renewal programs, such as the 15-year transformation of the old Mons in Barouel to a new Mons? This is where MONSFABRICA comes in, a mutual aid and action community, initiated by citizens and entrepreneurs. A first transitional space, prefiguring a space for local co-projects 59

that welcomes entrepreneurs, teleworkers, job seekers, young activity creators. Repair café, entrepreneurial aperitifs, second-hand market, zero waste workshop, etc.: MONSFABRICA is an overflowing profusion of initiatives displayed every year in an outdoor event in order to captivate new enthusiasts as it transforms itself and builds the city by reusing what already exists, with a healthy dose of humanity, collective intelligence and small means, multiplied by a lot of collaborative design.

There are big and small third places. Some of them are kind of rough, whereas others are more institutional... La Station in St Omer is a workspace that stimulates collaborative approaches and entrepreneurship on the territory. La Station was first prototyped in June 2016 and has stayed ever since a pavilion in the station’s forecourt. This pavilion has welcomed more than 15,000 visitors and has permitted to experiment the service offer, partnerships, new prospects. Since its opening in 2019, St Omer’s train station and La Station offer an ecosystem wherein, every single day, meet and collaborate freelanc60


ers, students, teleworkers who come to occupy coworking spaces, entrepreneurs, professional or personal project leaders who come to the FabLab to learn, test and prototype, companies, associations, teams with projects who benefit from the “outdoor� workspaces. Third places are spaces to be invented, tested and lived collectively. They are defined by what users do with them. Creation and innovation are the crux of the matter for companies and yet management training courses are generally impervious to anything related to artistic creation!

A new creative hangArt mixes both worlds at Lille’s Catholic University. Music, dancing, corporate pitches, theatre, gardening, collaborative workshops: the third places hosts all sort of activities in order to intersect creation processes and explore collaborations between art and entrepreneurship.

a community of users, develop sensitive intelligence and awaken curiosity to better understand complexity... Third places are subjective, they change from one person to another. They all explore atypical and unique configurations. The Fabrique de Gonesse, in the north of Paris, uses digital manufacturing technologies as an empowerment tool to fight school dropouts, particularly in disadvantaged neighbourhoods. It combines flexible teaching with peer-to-peer methods, achieving a 90% remobilisation rate. 70% of trainees return to the education system and 20% access their first job opportunity within 6 months following the end of the programme. Third places experiment doing things differently, more sustainably, resiliently and inclusively. In Milan, the Neighbourhood School is a four-year programme that stimulates social innovation practices in some of the city’s most disadvantaged neighbourhoods. Rather than being a conventional incubation programme, the Neighbourhood School aims to empower citizens to set up and manage initiatives that bring quality to neighbourhoods. During the pandemic, the Neighbourhood School became a great initiative for supporting, guiding and encouraging projects responding to the needs related to the city’s living conditions, such as new models of aggregation, cultural production, food-related services, alternative forms of care, etc. As the science fiction author Alain Damasio recently wrote, third places are “ZAG: self-governing zones. ZAGs […] experiment other types of collective lifestyles. They already exists in the shape of ZADs, communities, third places, collective farms, self-managed wastelands, rural eco-neighbourhoods”.

Design identifies new forms of interaction, exchange and collaboration that emerge within the city.

How does design stimulate citizen engagement, facilitate collaboration between inhabitants and public authorities, help reorganise stakeholders to co-produce the city?

THE MORE WE ARE

In the city of La Madeleine, the consultation “Coeur de Ville” invited citizens to project themselves, to imagine their ideal city centre. Participation mechanisms were designed to involve the greatest number of people: a guided tour of the square to rediscover what’s always been there, a “tell me a memory” session during a market day, “cards on the table” so that everyone can try their hand at being an urban planner-architect, the game “if I had magic powers, what would I change in the square?”, participatory workshops

with merchants and users, models of the square built by schoolchildren, 3 scenarios developed from the collected material and submitted to a vote, etc. Altogether, more than 2,000 citizens have collaborated together to create a small part of their city. Beyond citizen participation, how do you establish effective collaboration between the city and its citizens? Amersfoort, in the Netherlands, can be taken as an example of how social innovation is activated in the city, among URBACT II Networks’ 500 other cities. Parc Elisabeth’s restructuring plan is entrusted to a collective of citizens, the City Council acts as a café, allowing more time for discussion between residents and elected officials,

citizens invited administration agents to a conference on good collaboration, joint trainings were created between citizens, agents and elected officials, a 1000 people panel was drawn at random in order to imagine the city’s future and an open citizen blog in presented on the homepage of the city’s website. The town of Amersfoort experiments and challenges its governance. Inspired by Amersfoort, the project VILCO, standing for “Ville Collaborative” (Collaborative City), experiments, within Brussels-Capital Region, how to combine an array of citizen initiatives and collectives committed to improving life quality, mobility, living together. VILCO is also: municipalities and regional administra-


tions also working towards sustainable development, through new policies and diverse actions, cross-visits between citizen groups and administrations, often in opposition without really knowing each other, open forums for pooling resources and single-use service of public buildings, participatory budget and boosting of subsidies, administrative simplification of citizen projects, etc. A total of 16 POC are tested in full-scale, analysed and shared through a collaborative toolbox! URBACT’s ActiveCitizens Network explores citizen’s role between representative and participatory democracy. The city of Santa Maria da Feira in Portugal has designed a platform that connects volunteers with organisations looking for vol-

unteers. The system ensures volunteers’ registration, a sociologist discusses their motivations, the platform ensures linking supply and demand and volunteers sign a contract with the municipality to ensure, among other things, that they are covered by insurance. Volunteers’ massive involvement during the health crisis in the city of Wuxi, in China, anticipates the questions urged by greater citizen participation. The project Volun!ty, developed in cooperation with the government, resident communities, the Red Cross and a voluntary charitable foundation, uses a WeChat mini-program to register volunteers, their location and skills, register and find actions for better collective synergy, provide access to build-

ings, security instructions, quick trainings and coordinate meal distribution, display resting, reception and assistance facilities. Beyond the pandemic, Volun!ty is a platform that will continue to provide services and assistance to volunteers, while supporting their growth. Design helps people collaborate. Through its tools of inquiry, interaction, mediation, etc., it facilitates interaction between people who usually ignore each other, stimulates mutual curiosity and the desire to understand each other better. Especially in times of crisis, it improves the ability to cooperate.

72


73


How does design help to link what is already there, to incorporate material resources and available services, the skills of some and the goodwill of others, into platforms providing practical and effective solutions?

“In our society there are often a lot of things that already exist but what is missing is something to connect them. For instance, it’s not easy for small businesses in the city, there’s a lot of competition from large retailers and e-commerce. The idea of an app like Sheefoo is that it combines the advantages of both: the easiness of searching online without having to wait for delivery because what you buy is just around the corner!”

“You can see at a glance everything that’s on sale in your neighbourhood through your phone, then you book it online and pick it up right away. So you don’t go out for nothing anymore. And no need to drive miles when what you’re looking for is just around the corner…”

“It puts forward the street’s shops, craftsmen’s skills and good advice.”

“Small local shops, bargains and discounts become visible throughout the neighbourhood.”

“It’s kind of a platform, actually. And platforms aren’t just about connecting businesses and customers, they’re also about connecting ideas with people who can implement them, for example. Like the city of Turin, which has set up Innova.TO, a platform for projects. Because the 10,000 people who work in the city administration might be potential innovators, but the idea of one might not reach the ear of the person who could actually implement it.”

76


Online and around the corner @Sheefoo #Sheefoo: the easiness of searching online without having to wait for delivery because what you buy is just around the corner!

“In fact 111 employees participated, 71 projects were submitted, and 10 proposals are currently being implemented.”

“And it ranges from improving transparency and participation of citizens’ initiatives in local projects to new models for smart purchasing, to sensors that regulate lighting in public buildings.”

“Platforms can also take a physical form, like the HUB in Suez for example, a third place that brings together local authorities, start-ups, researchers, engineers, students, local entrepreneurs…”

77


“The idea is that it’s an incubator, an accelerator, a place where all these people meet and so it gives very diverse results! Like an app that allows households to control better their water consumption, or a mediation team for families who have difficulties in paying their water bills, or a program of water fountains set up in cities and public places…”

“A platform like the HUB allows us to better understand the needs of a territory in regards to drinking water, industrial water, waste recovery, sanitation, digital technology and the future of the city…”

Bring water stakeholders to a boil! @Hub by Suez #Hub by Suez: a company historically oriented towards technology which moves towards a culture of co-construction of services.

78


“The emergency during the sanitary crisis has made it even more essential to connect and coordinate existing resources. For example, a problem that nobody really paid attention to: what happens to the pets of old people in quarantine or those being taken to the hospital? Well in Wuxi, China, the project Pet’s Voice describes a platform that provide services to pet owners who are hospitalised.”

“It’s a system that coordinates occasional volunteers for simple assistance, such as feeding an animal every day... and more experienced volunteers or professionals, for more difficult tasks, emergencies or long-distance transport.”

79


“After the pandemic, Pet’s Voice will still remain useful, to organise peer-to-peer services around pets that might not have seen the light of day had it not been for the constraint of the emergency…”

“In Changsha, the University of Hunan has developed the app “Jiwubang”, to meet the daily needs of the citizens. It’s an app that allows people to list and locate available products and supplies, and people can search for help or offer it… and sharing information on the location of resources helps to reduce the imbalance between supply and demand…”

“If there is a will to collaborate among people that develops, whether it’s in times of crisis or in normal times... then a platform like “Jiwubang” might be the way to make it both efficient and easy to access.”

80


Light up your community map @School of Design of Hunan University #Jiwubang, a mini welfare WeChat programme that balances supply and demand for services in times of crisis.

The potential for collaboration within cities is huge. Design does not necessarily reinvent new solutions, but connects existing elements, identifies opportunities for synergies, articulates heterogeneous resources. In times of crisis, it connects residual, under-exploited potential for new collaborations.

THE MORE WE ARE

82


How does design establish a collective creativity, arrange collaboration between large numbers of anonymous people and organise the pooling of every citizen’s contribution?

“Cart’ier is a map of the Fives and Hellemmes neighbourhoods. It was made by the citizens themselves. It’s kind of a tourist map that talks about the heritage of these neighbourhoods as seen by those who live there…”

“Sure, but what I find most interesting is the process itself, making a map together... In difficult neighbourhoods, it’s a good way to make people talk to each other and make social ties…”

83


Residents a la carte! @Association Interphaz #Cart’ier is the first tourist and heritage map of the Fives and Hellemmes neighbourhoods, co-constructed with and for its citizens.

84


“Yeah, exactly... see, this first map, it was made in 2016, and now they’re going to conduct new workshops, so it’s going to involve new citizens. Besides, in the project, they want the map to exist as different signs in the neighbourhood to involve even more people…”

“There are a lot of mapping projects like this one in other cities and neighbourhoods.”

85


“Here, at La Madeleine, in a workshop to make a participatory mapping of the Berkem neighbourhood, a woman revealed the pictures she had been taking every day during the demolition of an old factory found just across the street. Telling past stories is a way to make them your own and understand better the changes taking place.”

86

“In Lille, the project Insolille transforms participatory mapping into an interactive treasure hunt: the citizens identify on an application some of the city’s unusual places. It allows citizens and tourists to have a different and offbeat view of the city.”

Hydrological communities in the city @Brusseau #Brusseau: a collective mapping of the city’s water management in order to build a common language between citizens, scientists and public authorities.

“The participatory mapping process, it also allows people to collaborate together. In Brussels, the project Brusseau builds a collaborative water management in the city. It is not a trivial subject: citizens, scientists and city services using the map enable the precise reconstruction of watercourses that have been covered by urbanisation but also, for example, to create a “watershed solidarity” between the citizens of the neighbourhoods located high up where overly impermeable soils cause flooding among the citizens living downstream.”

88


“Citizens contribute as scientists. In the project Biodimètre, people participate in measuring the biodiversity of the neighbourhood Rives de la HauteDeûle. The sensor’s design allows everyone to make their own, put it in their garden or on their balcony, and maintain it the same way they water their plants.”

“It gives the dimension of “citizen-scientist”, it is addressed to each one of us, of you to defend the cultural heritage or to monitor air quality, environmental preservation.”

89


“The pandemic has also sparked a lot of mobilisation and “crowd sourcing”, like the University of Design in Boston, that has launched since March a call for Design for Emergency projects in USA, Brazil, Peru, Italy, France, Corea…8 different countries as of now, they have launched a collaborative problem diagnosis and from there they constitute an open source “project repository”.”

90


Design for Emergency @Centre de design, CAMD, Université du Nord-Est, Boston #Design for Emergency, an open platform for design projects that aims to face the pandemic’s effects.

Design imagines and establishes latent collaboration modalities by default, as a “background task”, to which citizens contribute naturally, as they use them, without any particular effort, and from which every citizen in the city can benefit from without necessarily actively contributing. In the face of emerging problems, it seeks to make the most of human resources, the only resources our cities have in abundance.

s How does design facilitate collaboration, the creation of atypical partnerships, the generation of new value creation models?

Why organise workshops with the neighbourhood population to design things that will be dismantled after three months? The ephemeral installations called “Les Beaux Endroits” are a pretext to trigger collaboration between stakeholders who normally ignore each other and to start new projects between them. Campus Gare, for example, is an underexploited square at the crossroads between the university, the station, shops and the neighbourhood.

are organised with residents, passers-by, shopkeepers and students. In the end, modules of meeting, taking a break, gardening and large-format portraits warm up this cold and empty place. Beyond this temporary upturn, actors who did not know each other met and started working together. The University of Lille, SIA Habitat, SEM Ville Renouvelée, La Condition Publique, SNCF, CROUS and the City of Roubaix are working to make the university more aware of third places, to create artistic offers for the people living around, to use the square for a neighbourhood ball. If “Les Beaux Endroits “ is not made to last, it is nevertheless a light icebreaker tool and a great way to trigger collaboration between stakeholders. 94


The network URBACT REFILL has designed a speed dating process that brings together stakeholders who don’t usually work together. The city of Cluj in Romania has had it tested by building collaboration scenarios between city administration and citizen groups. Activists architects and the Department of Cultural Projects have made citizen consultation installations in the city’s squares. In Poznan, Poland, the Department of Education and Culture and a group of Makers organised out of school classes for children. The town of Ghent in Belgium organised a large “collaboration market” in order to encourage more than 200 local associations to join forces and create a giant socio-cultural incubator in the former unoccupied Central Library building. 95


On a larger scale, the project LIFE, Lille Food Experience, aims to bring together an ecosystem of heterogeneous actors around food and well-being in the city. A collaborative design process has enabled to construct a “confluence” approach between: Euralimentaire’s research and development centre, the Lomme National Wholesale Interest Market, the development of an urban farm on the outskirts of Ennetières en Weppes’ fort and the development of a Gourmet Hall in the Englos shopping centre. The aim is to form a platform for food excellence that brings together stakeholders in research, development, production, distribution and consumer sales in a single location, to facilitate 96

collaboration and encourage innovation. On an even larger scale, co-development within a network of stakeholders is a way of tackling issues such as the massive eco-renovation of more than 1,500 schools at the scale of Lille-Kortrijk-Tournai Eurometropolis. In 50 years, the neighbourhood’s school has hardly changed. Often deteriorated, the buildings by no means embody the changes needed to address the climate challenge. The design of the experimental platform “Ecorenov rev3 Schools of Tomorrow” takes inspiration from the 182 schools renovated by the Flemish Region in Belgium and the research-creation process of the LAB-Ecole in Quebec, Canada. In particular, it comprises a “quality room”, which will bring together public decision-makers, project managers, 97

user representatives, construction professionals and local industrial network in order to create new methods, tools and processes, with an exemplary ecological, educational and architectural logic. Faced with the health crisis, the University of Design of the city of Bellorizonte in Brazil, triggered a general mobilisation to produce “1 Million Masks� by recycling fabric coming from small companies in the fashion industry, providing work for seamstresses in the city’s favelas and mobilising as far as the army for transportation in the north of the country. 98


Design takes advantage of the city’s socio-diversity to imagine atypical collaborations, bring together converging interests that usually ignore each other, make antagonistic parties compatible, re-shape the fabric of actors in order to imagine more complex and resilient solutions. Faced with unprecedented crisis situations, it strengthens the capacity for improvisation and experimentation within the existing set of actors.

and reflections and put them at the service of the territories that want to engage in a global transition process. Today, around thirty regional authorities, civil society organisations, companies, resource centres, research and training centres, state agencies and structures collaborate within an alliance that is widely open to all. This alliance has a Charter setting out the objectives, values and work agenda, along with a promotion board ensuring a sustained collective dynamic. On a cross-border scale, the project DESIGN IN is based on the collaboration and exchange of practices between the cities of Mons, Tournai, Kortrijk and Lille Metropole. Its aim is to strengthen and stimulate the development and attractiveness of its city centres through the integration of design. DESIGN IN is part of the European INTERREG programmes. The project promotes exchange between cities, sharing of experiences among merchants, different ways of using

design as a development factor and territory attractiveness. Three forms of action are explored and experimented in the four cities: DESIGN IN SHOP encourages collaboration between merchants and design professionals in order to enhance business competitiveness. POP IN STORE deals with the provision, for artisans-designers, of temporary retail spaces alternating between the four cities, in order to test their activity. DESIGN IN TOWN aims to enhance urban spaces by responding to issues previously identified by users.

cities have three years to organise cross-visits, mobilise local stakeholders, design tools to exchange their practices, imagine transfer processes, capitalise and implement the lessons they have learnt. Design organises collaboration between cities. Beyond territorial marketing, it identifies common problems, facilitates mediation between urban cultures, develops modalities and tools for reinterpretation and transmission.

tegration of the University in the city. The improvement of the living environment of the Campus and the neighbourhood starts by introducing more nature into the city, greening façades, street planting, greening roofs, creating vegetable gardens. The city of Villeneuve d’Ascq is looking to identify public spaces that could possibly be used by volunteers to cultivate vegetable gardens. In turn, it wishes to encourage citizens to request the city’s help to occupy abandoned spaces, unbuilt vacant areas, building basements in order to cultivate in these areas. Two shared gardens have been set up in the heart of the neighbourhood, integrating permaculture’s principles, preserving and even increasing biodiversity. Through large landscapes left to agriculture and cultivated interstitial spaces in the heart of neighbourhoods, Villeneuve d’Ascq ensures landscape and ecological continuity throughout the territory and turns nature into the lever for a Nourishing City. 118

Since spring 2019, the town of Haubourdin has offered Interval the possibility to cultivate a second plot of land near the Bocquiau farm. The association partly supplies Haubourdin’s central kitchen and works in partnership with the organic chain of store, Bon Gourmand. Most recently the town has contributed to the creation of “Producers of the Future”, a covered market set up in a space that remained vacant in the city centre after the closure of a supermarket in 2017.

bottom-up approaches of city making and top-down approaches of cities and large organisations?

The local association Berkem Label, in collaboration with the city of La Madeleine started to revive the former Huet Establishments’ wasteland long before the idea of turning it into a theatre. First by designing remarkable citizen action: raising awareness about La Madeleine’s industrial heritage; rallies, slideshows, guided tours for visitors and residents; workshops in local cafés with former weavers. 127


Starting before opening! @City of la Madeleine Cultural entertainment brought by the association Berkem Label in order to anticipate the trasnformation of the former #Chaufferie Huet into an auditorium.

128


When the Chaufferie and its chimney were threatened with demolition, locals became concerned, Berkem Label filed an appeal. Chaufferie Huet is part of the city’s inventory of architectural and landscape heritage! Then, by starting the show well before inaugurating the venue: Façad’Art within the street art festival Les Fenêtres qui parlent, Beffrois du travail to bring awareness to the common heritage, Fantastik, Ducasse de Berkem for Lille3000, Atome@Berkem, planting vegetables on site during the heritage days, Lille3000 Renaissance on the banks of the Deûle river, etc. Berkem Label’s design actions are emblematic of the temporary occupation strategy which starts before the opening and aims to establish its practices well before the facilities. The construction of new housing involves all the inhabitants: in the neighbourhood of Lille Fives, on Friche Brunel’s site, for example, a local collective and a real estate operator look at how to collaborate in every stage of the project. Drafting the specification, choosing a social landlord, picking an architect and landscape designer: everybody has had their say in the choice of green roofs and bicycle shelters, in the consideration on services and shared spaces. The inhabitants ask for collective resources such as association premises, shared gardens. The real estate operator wants to ensure they commit, in the long term, to using and managing these shared resources. A collage made of giant portraits of the inhabitants, located on the facade of the industri129

al wasteland, supports the approach. A series of workshops on landscape design with locals prefigures what the shared gardens will look like. Real estate operators draw inspiration from the social innovation and attempt to expand it. Within the new residence Montalembert in Villeneuve D’Ascq, for example, the SOGEPROM-PROJECTIM property developer wants to develop, with the residents’ help, a car-sharing system. For him, mobility services should be an integral part of new housing programs. Together they seek to design a tool, in paper or digital format, that allows residents to communicate their daily mobility needs and identify shared transport services such as bicycles, cars, etc... thus establishing social links between neighbours in the residence.

On a larger scale, the cities of the European network URBACT Sustainable Food in Urban Communities are designing, each in their own way, synergies between citizen initiatives relating to sustainable food and public authority action. The city of Bristol, for example, designed a consultative Food City Council that brings together different urban agriculture projects in order to promote healthy and sustainable food in the city. Citizens’ involvement in making the city only increases in times of crisis. The project Temporary Local Address seeks to help homeless people get access to financial 131

assistance during the pandemic. Parsons’ students in New York City are working with homeless people and with Brooklyn’s Public Libraries to design a temporary local address service giving access to personal mailboxes, notifying homeless people whenever they get mail, alleviating emergency situations without creating insecurity. Social innovation design, design of public services and policies and the design implemented by companies converge to make civil society, public authorities and economic actors collaborate,

put citizen initiatives and city

governance in synergy and balance private interests and general interests in times of crisis, as well as in normal times.

How does design help to develop a sharing economy and organise a new typology of collaborative services in which the beneficiary users are the co-producers?

FIELD DESIGN

TIVATING TERRITORY

Oke Charge, for example, is a refill service for electric

vehicles, based on the sharing economy model: whoever sets up an exterior electrical outlet to charge their vehicle can make it available to other users. The Oke Charge box and application allow any subscriber to connect their vehicle and recharge it, automatically paying the service and the electricity it consumes to the private individu-

al...advancing the potential deployment of thousands of charging points so that nobody ever runs out of fuel again! The design of shared services allows to make the most of underutilised individual resources. In Wattignies, south of Lille, the project Design Paysagé explores the hypothesis of joining garden backyards in order to create a harmonious landscape and secure the continuity of the green grid. Connecting the gardens of a same allotment together creates an open passage from one plot to another, resulting in a common garden. Each family keeps part of their garden private that opens-up onto a larger space of nature. A pathway, going from the bottom of one garden to another, offers the neighbourhood’s inhabitants a continuity of green space, favourable to biodiversity.

Unbounded mobility @Les Acrobates #Oke Charge : recharge your electric vehicle anywhere thanks to a system of “public domestic” plugs.

Let’s create our landscape together @Groupe pUr #Design paysagé: in Wattignies, south of Lille, how do you ensure the continuity of the green grid by connecting gardens of the same housing plot?

The design of shared services facilitates more sustainable practices. Selling a second-hand coat or coffee maker in one click is easy but then you have to pack the package, ship it and often pay more than you sold it for. The project ConsignO’Relais aims to facilitate second-hand product exchange between private individuals. In France, more than 500 000 parcels are shipped every year at less than 15 km from the original shipping place. With the service ConsignO’Relais, sellers and buyers get to choose a Point Relais that is easy to access for both of them. The seller deposits its parcel there and the buyer picks it up when it best suits him. Just like a typical shipping, the transaction takes place on Mondial Relay’ site at a low price, requiring no packaging and usually done through soft mobility for the shorter distances or maybe while running other errands for longer distances. 137


Cities are looking to redesign collaborative public services. Helsinki, for example, grants its citizens access to public buildings when not in use. A platform allows any citizen to book a public library meeting rooms in the evenings or a school gym on the weekend! Users receive an access code for the space via a digital lock and take responsibility for the space for the booked time. Design imagines solutions for sharing available resources, ways of intensifying the use of facilities and new models of exchange between citizens. In times of crisis, it seeks more equitable and inclusive processes of mutualisation and regulation.

Second hand at hand @Mondial Relay #ConsignOrelais: consignment or exchange of parcels from one individual to another living in the same neighbourhood.

No unused public space! @Helsinki #Flexi Space: Kalasatama, the “smart city� neighbourhood of Helsinki, is experimenting with an online service for booking temporarily unused public and private spaces.

How does design activate social innovation, facilitate peer support, regenerate common goods and organise a solidarity-based city?

For instance, turning market gardening into a catalyst for integration and a revealer of skills? This is one of Interval’s Integration Workshops, a gateway structure to return to professional life. 3 hectares of a former quarry in Haubourdin produce certified organic vegetables.

Around 30 re-integrations, every year, of job seekers through market gardening and an interval for the long-term unemployed in order to rebuild confidence, acquire skills, follow training courses and find a job. Interval’s social innovation design progressively builds an integrat141

ed, systemic and resilient solution for employment reintegration: partially supplying the kitchens of locals canteens, opening a covered market in a former supermarket, collaborating with schools, with the Nursing Home for Dependent Elderly Persons, with the neighbourhood’s residents. “Producers of the future says the technical manager, because we produce vegetables, of course, but also because we create integration”.

In the neighbourhoods of Fives and Hellemmes, the project Cuisine Commune has been developed for its residents to gather, cook and eat together, exchange recipes, discuss food and participate in a neighbourhood renovation project. The association Sens du Goût has built an ephemeral kitchen, open to all and available for free. Avant-Goût of the Cuisine Commune has already welcomed a large number of

partners and users during events for the general public and consultation workshops. This preliminary phase enabled participants to take ownership of the place and get involved in the project. The association and its participants have reflected together about the activities, facilities and operating rules to be implemented in the final Cuisine Commune. In the neighbourhood of Grajaú in Rio de Janeiro, the Design University has

initiated “My Neighbourhood Project”, with the aim of building solid relationship with people, encouraging citizens to become active agents of change within their community. During the pandemic, a participatory mapping exercise, Collab Grajaú, was conducted, identifying the neighbourhood’s small businesses and volunteers in order to stimulate mutual aid and personal connections between residents/workers.

After the pandemic, the Collab Grajaú mapping will become available online, as a reliable source of services, promoting the local economy and putting forward local small businesses.

Designing a more collaborative city activates the pleasure of doing things together. Facing the increase of complex problems and rebound effects cities have to face, it re-territorialises relationships, revives the feeling of multi-membership, reactivates the value of the common and re-invigorates collaboration.

How can design facilitate collaboration in the city so as to create supportive, sustainable and democratic lifestyles?

This publication looks back on two years of investigative work carried out by the curatorial team around the territory’s projects, the public, private and citizen actors who have carried them out and the designers who attended them. It combines these projects with those of DESIS labs in design schools and universities around the world, with the design of doing and living together in the European cities of the URBACT networks, and shows how the activation of a set of selected projects acts as a form of acupuncture for the territory and a transformation of a complex system of interrelated actors through a multitude of design projects, from which emerge fifteen new types of collaboration and which constitute models to inspire the design of a more collaborative city.

© Berkem Label

Within the context of Lille 2020, World Design Capital, the Maison POC Collaborative City explores more than a hundred local and global projects as a way of identifying emerging visions of sharing, mutual aid and cooperation.
