Book Synopsis
How can an urban community revitalise dormant empty spaces in the long term? Since 2009, the ZwischenZeitZentrale (ZZZ) in Bremen has been opening windows of opportunity. They explore experimental space usage through short-term collaborations that serve as trial runs for the development of longer-term projects. Interim usage, which makes use of the shortcomings of urban planning, can therefore become an effective urban development tool. Building Platforms creates an overview of factors for success, to be taken into consideration when implementing interim usages. Based on illuminating examples, the process of an interim usage is explained from the first vague enquiry to its successful realisation. Building Platforms is therefore a handbook for doers and decision-makers, as well as an encouraging appeal for communities to participate in urban development.
