\"Spacing<\/a><\/p>\n

Design Sundays is a series of playful explorations at the Museum of Vancouver around the theme of Housing for a Connected City<\/strong>. We will poke you to think about how we can increase social connection in our communities by rethinking the places where we live. What would our city look like if we designed housing with connectedness in mind?<\/p>\n

This series of four Design Sundays can be experienced as such or as standalone events.<\/p>\n

Part 1: JUXTAPOSE<\/h3>\n

Juxtaposition brings seemingly distant ideas together. The Museum of Vancouver and Laboratory of Housing Alternatives (LOHA) invite Paul Kershaw, founder of Generation Squeeze, and emerging local architect Marianne Amodio to share their work and ideas around housing, affordability, connection and engagement in a participatory dialogue. Audience members will compare and contrast academic and everyday ideas surrounding housing affordability. Facilitators will help bridge gaps in the conversation in order to encourage everyone to recognize the values embedded in debates about housing.<\/p>\n

Part 2: REFRAME<\/h3>\n

As Albert Einstein famously recognized, \u201cinsanity is doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting different results.\u201d Tomorrow\u2019s leaders know that if we want to fashion our rapidly changing world into the brighter future we envision, it\u2019s time to try something new. The Museum of Vancouver and Laboratory of Housing Alternatives (LOHA) invite THNK Vancouver to facilitate a?workshop to explore what it means to reframe our most personal environment \u2013 our home. This is a rare opportunity to reexamine our entrenched perceptions of what \u201chome\u201d means. Participants will examine how the form and function of housing plays out in many of today\u2019s complex social issues. By utilizing a Reframing Technique with the right tools for framing<\/a>, we\u2019ll endeavor to develop new perspectives with which to address these problems.<\/p>\n

Sunday, November 16, 2014
\n2:30pm-5:00pm<\/strong>

Part 3: RALLY<\/p>\n

What is the potential for language to affect social change? The Museum of Vancouver and Laboratory of Housing Alternatives (LOHA) invite Jorge Amigo (#bemyamigo<\/a>) to host a collaborative session in which participants work together to imagine what a (positive) political protest would look like if they showed up at City Hall demanding housing that fostered greater social connection. We\u2019ll design signage as an exercise in thinking about how to express complex ideas in short, engaging messages that captivate the public\u2019s imagination.<\/p>\n

Sunday, November 23, 2014
\n2:30pm-5:00pm<\/strong>

Part 4: CONNECT<\/h3>\n

To build upon the knowledge gained from the three previous Design Sunday sessions, The Museum of Vancouver and Laboratory of Housing Alternatives (LOHA) invite both veteran and first-time Design Sunday participants to join the Vancouver Design Nerds for a Design Nerd Jam on identifying successful and improvable spaces of connection in our local communities and neighbourhoods. On-the-fly mapping and visual stocktaking of these spaces will allow participants to see how their ways of living connect them to the experiences of others. These exercises will also act as a launching point for us to design a city that helps us to better connect with each other. By looking at the places in which we live and gather; and by examining the ways we travel, work and play, we\u2019ll discover how the design of housing can contribute to a more connected city, and devise solutions with which to affect and re-invent public and informal spaces of connection for better neighbourhood experience.<\/p>\n
