Prosuming Public Space: The UNPark Project showcases the experience of the Urban Nudging Park research initiative, funded by the Politecnico di Milano’s social responsibility program through the competitive Polisocial Award 2019. The book captures the complexity that defined UNPark, a research-by-design project inspired by the principles of tactical urbanism, focusing on the role urban infrastructure can play in regenerating underutilized spaces. UNPark represents a transdisciplinary effort realized through a temporary tactical urban intervention and an exploration of transforming the parking area beneath the Serra-Monte Ceneri Overpass in Milan into a multifunctional hub for social activities, including street sports. This chapter outlines the project's research phases, reflections on urban dynamics during the pandemic, the co-design process, the multifunctional regeneration of urban infrastructure, and the critical importance of transdisciplinary collaboration in urban design initiatives.

Abstract

Prosuming Public Space: The UNPark Project showcases the experience of the Urban Nudging Park research initiative, funded by the Politecnico di Milano’s social responsibility program through the competitive Polisocial Award 2019. The book captures the complexity that defined UNPark, a research-by-design project inspired by the principles of tactical urbanism, focusing on the role urban infrastructure can play in regenerating underutilized spaces. UNPark represents a transdisciplinary effort realized through a temporary tactical urban intervention and an exploration of transforming the parking area beneath the Serra-Monte Ceneri Overpass in Milan into a multifunctional hub for social activities, including street sports. This chapter outlines the project's research phases, reflections on urban dynamics during the pandemic, the co-design process, the multifunctional regeneration of urban infrastructure, and the critical importance of transdisciplinary collaboration in urban design initiatives.
