Action
Diagnostics
analyse spatial, social, and institutional dynamics through data-informed analysis:
-
evaluate how close and connected complementary uses, activities, and stakeholders are;
-
identify the gaps and opportunities in existing institutional, economic, and mobility networks;
-
analyse when and how spaces [ from streets to districts ] are used, and how this changes across time;
-
understand the current mix of uses, activities, and people and what is needed.
Strategies
turn these insights into targeted actions and actionable plans with measurable outcomes.
Tailor-made approaches that:
-
close spatial, institutional, and network distances;
-
intentionally orchestrate timing, sequencing, and temporal layering;
-
prescribe what needs to be introduced, to catalyze synergy, resilience, and vibrancy.
[MIX]
Understanding and shaping the composition of activities, uses, and people.
[PROXIMITIES]
Exploring and strengthening spatial, social, and institutional closeness.
[RHYTHMS]
Observing and reconfiguring the temporal dimension of spaces.

MIX
Assess Suitability & Strategic Potential
Evaluate how the physical, social, and institutional context aligns with development goals. Combine spatial data, accessibility analysis, and stakeholder insight to identify where interventions can deliver the greatest impact.
​> Suitability Assessment Report
Revitalise Neighbourhoods
Support public and private actors in placemaking processes that unlock local potential through evidence-based regeneration strategies and participatory design. Identify underused spaces and design programmes that attract complementary activities and diverse user groups.
​> Neighbourhood Activation Plan
Re-activate Existing Assets
Transform existing buildings, infrastructures, or districts into hybrid, community-anchored places. Assess current performance, define new use mixes, and guide adaptive reuse projects that strengthen local ecosystems.
> Adaptive Reuse Strategy
Map & Match Stakeholders
Analyse who is present or missing within local networks and build bridges between actors. Reveal relational gaps and help forge collaborations that accelerate innovation and cohesion.
> Stakeholder Network Map
Evaluate impact & policy alignment
Measure the spatial and social effects of projects and verify their coherence with funding, sustainability, and planning frameworks. Produce indicators and dashboards to support transparent decision-making and reporting.
> Impact Dashboard
PROXIMITIES
Plan and Guide Transit-Oriented Developments
Shape development around stations and multimodal hubs to integrate accessibility, land-use mix, and high-quality public space. Combine spatial analytics and design visioning to enhance liveability and economic potential.
> Station Area Concept Plan
Develop Guidelines for Mobility Hubs and Corridors
Develop strategies around transit stations and mobility hubs as key urban interfaces where flows, activities, and communities converge. Define spatial and functional guidelines for station areas, interchanges, and urban corridors.
> Mobility Hub Design Guidelines
Advise on Multilevel Connectivity
Support cities and regions in coordinating transport, territorial, and cross-border infrastructures. Identify leverage points for greater efficiency, accessibility, and sustainability.
> Multilevel Connectivity Framework
Facilitate Everyday Mobility Paths
Enhance micro-mobility, pedestrian and cycling connections that bring daily activities closer together. Street-level audits and scenario models that translate mobility data into concrete design recommendations.
> Everyday Mobility Playbook
Connect Strategic Actors
Turn dialogue into structured, actionable coordination. Facilitate cooperation between institutions, businesses and communities to close relational gaps. Design and moderate collaborative processes that transform fragmented governance into shared implementation plans.
> Collaborative Action Plan
RHYTHMS
Plan Inspiring Co-presences
Coordinate overlapping uses to promote inclusion and collaboration. Design schedules, layouts, and programming strategies that bring diverse groups together throughout the day and week.
> Co-Presence Playbook
Orchestrate Temporary Programmes
Introduce temporary activities and uses [markets, installations, light festivals, workshops, pop-ups] as tools of tactical placemaking to encourage encounters, strenghten local networks and activate places. Handle the design, logistics, and stakeholder coordination to turn short-term events into long-term value.
> Temporary Activation Portfolio
Coordinate Time-Based Uses
Aligning the timing of uses and services [mobility, leisure, logistics] to foster a thriving urban rhythm that optimises productivity, energy and social life. Identify compatible and synergetic activities that can (and should) share space and/or time.
