The open source public space devices is a potential kit of resources and knowledge shared by communities and urban practitioners already involved in shaping and redesigning public spaces.

This research and development is focused on conditions where culture of sharing could democratize the production and transformation of public spaces in spaces of commons.

The aim is to integrate within co-design, making and prototype of devices, an exploration of what public spaces mean for european people.

The outputs are going to be a replicable methodology, a situated research in different scenarios and an initial kit of open source public space devices.

The research undertaken to develop this idea was supported by the European Cultural Foundation.
