Frequently asked questions

What is placemaking?

Placemaking is a collaborative transformation of open spaces to create vibrant, engaging, and sustainable places that people want to visit, live, work and play in.

What is the purpose of placemaking?

It promotes happiness, well-being and health while ultimately driving economic growth, footfall and engagement. It’s a win-win for people, spaces and local businesses.

Is placemaking the same as city dressing?

City dressing forms part of the placemaking mix. It can use art installations, landscaping, projections, urban greening, large scale signage and other design elements to enhance the aesthetic appeal of urban spaces.

How does the process work?

We start with understanding your goals and objectives before starting on creative design and concept development. We cover the details such as permits, production and installation. We can also offer ongoing maintenance, checks, removal and storage of displays.

Do you need permission or permits for placemaking activations?

When considering a placemaking installation, you may need planning permission or advertising consent. There are other considerations around risk and method statements which should form part of the planning process. Our team of experts can help and advice you on specific projects.
