Exhibition themes include environmental design, urban planning, suburban issues, challenges of rural and remote communities in winter weather; winter clothing and footwear, and the psychological and emotional consequences of winter.&#8221; Admission is free. <\/p>\n<p>In a related event, on Tuesday Nov. 8, from 2pm-5pm, &#8220;Orphan Spaces,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d an invitational design charette will take place. The charette will explore new possibilities for Orphan spaces &#8212; or undeveloped areas in the city that become lost in the shuffle of creating homes, businesses, parks, utility, and transportation corridors. It&#8217;s too bad it&#8217;s invitation-only, but we can hope that some results from the charette will be made public.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Toronto is a winter city, but we often don&#8217;t like to admit it, and as a result, our public spaces are often designed so that they&#8217;re only attractive for the warm half of the year.
