"To live, the city is in perpetual evolution and transformation. Today more than ever, with the evolution of lifestyles, urban practices and mobility, but also with the new challenges related to climate issues, the city must adapt. The time in between is more frequent, more visible, but also more restrictive and less understandable for those who live in or visit the city.
At a time when Paris is preparing to welcome the world, how can we give meaning and aesthetics to the transitory? What are the differences between temporary and provisional development, between prefiguration and experimentation? How can we design the aesthetics of each of these times according to the specific needs they induce? What tools can be used to anticipate and move from disorder to harmony, from wild and spontaneous individual initiative to common vocabulary?
This is the challenge of this meeting, organized on the occasion of the publication of the study conducted under the direction of Nodesign, which for the first time draws up an international report on the design of the city in transformation, and proposes an analysis and avenues for improvement to accompany the city in the making and move from a time of suffering to a time of acceptance.
