Design that understands the limitations and needs of people with physical, sensory and intellectual disabilities. Realizing the principles of UD today requires interdisciplinary knowledge, which will be provided by invited lecturers from various universities. Within the framework of the stationary classes - design workshops - the students' task will be to develop an urban-architectural concept of a given micro-space, which during staying in Poland the students will personally see and analyse. |

TASK DESCRIPTION
Microplanning is addressed to the problems of small spaces in the city structure, which have the potential to be an important place for the local community and to bring about image and pro-social changes. It is not a new issue in the world, but in Poland, for mundane reasons, local decision-makers, for various reasons, aim to change the image of these spaces. On the other hand, the microplanning methodology is based on reliable pre-project research conducted with the participation of all stakeholders, including in particular potential users of the developed area.
This will be done through interdisciplinary cooperation with the professions (cognitive scientist, aesthetician-philosopher) that are increasingly influential today in shaping "universal space" - accessible to every user.
Within the framework of the project, groups of several (international) students will be formed to develop a concept for the development of a given public space, that is located in Ślemień – small town on south of Poland.
TOPIC NO. 1 Revitalization of the historic park in Ślemień together with the pond
Total area: 0.8986 ha - park area: 0.7042 ha, pond area: 0.1944 ha.
