STREETS / OASES A new vision of the Streets as Public Spaces

If most people on the planet live in urban areas, as researchers and designers, we must intervene in those community spaces that allow society to meet, clash, discuss, equalize, relating: they are places that fall within what we define as public space, that is, open, free, publicly accessible urban space. Public space is the place of the future of the cities, on which it is necessary to work to build a communal identity, as a recognition realm for the entire community. Within the public space, streets represent, quantitatively, the most extensive and the most characterizing element: public space is born with the street, a place of connection of communities, a primordial space of agreement and disagreement between citizens, an essential element for urban settlements on the planet.
