At present, there are a lot of improvised uses around Wan Chai. From extension of restaurants with foldable tables and chairs to accommodate more customers, to neighbours blocking car parking with plants. We have started to observe a lot of interesting adaptations that are human-centred and day-to-day, contributing to the neighbourhood commons. The project is based on the simple premise of extending these authentic programming of streets as public spaces. These imply informal adaptations, and eventually, ways of formalising these informal adaptations into actual, inclusive public spaces. These journeys have been adopted in many cities, and the process is usually long and dreary, but it has to start somewhere. This is the start of it for Wan Chai to use topics as such to cultivate civic awareness and ownership.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Between August 2020 and January 2021, we embarked on \u2018Neighbourhood Commons @ Wan Chai\u2019, a place-making project aimed at understanding and exploring ways to cultivate an inclusive neighbourhood in Wan Chai. We engaged diverse stakeholders through various forms of public participatory programmes, including 1-on-1 interviews, neighbourhood walks, street polling, co-creation workshops and many more. These activities have allowed us to build a repository of insights and data about the neighbourhood, which have, in turn, informed prototype initiatives developed by the neighbours, for the neighbours.<\/p>\n\n\n

    Together with 39 civic design fellows, we began to build up knowledge about the Wan Chai neighbourhood. We gathered a body of quantitative data and qualitative insights through a combination of desktop research, observations and social listening. These insights informed in-depth dialogues and an extensive series of workshops with stakeholders that have vested interests in the neighbourhood to ideate ways of approaching a commons.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Building on innovative ideas and the collaborative spirits of civic design fellows and neighbourhood collaborators, we co-created testable prototypes with the public to experiment with ways to create shared value between social and business goals and measure them against defined metrics to review lessons learnt from Wan Chai as a pilot neighbourhood. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    To ensure that design recommendations could contribute to possible and promising changes, we conduct testing and collect feedback to inform iterative cycles of design and further evaluation. A selection of concepts generated by civic design fellows was tested at Co-creating Weekend. The event was organised on November 28 and 29, in partnership with BODW City Program by Hong Kong Design Centre. The action-based design research enabled us to interweave design recommendations with the rhythms of everyday life in Wan Chai and reach a broader audience. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
