Other Interventions

  • Running trails

    Running trails as urban interventions are strategic design pathways in our cities that inspire people to get active, boost public health, and strengthen connections within urban spaces. Whether temporary or permanent, these trails offer much more than just a place to exercise; they also support environmental sustainability, foster community engagement, and promote social inclusivity.

  • Water fountain

    The incorporation of water fountains or aquatic spaces in the public space works as a refreshing element in places where temperatures are very high, acting as a thermal regulator, and as an outdoor climatic refuge. At the same time, they are spaces that encourage people to gather and act as centres of attraction for community social activities. In the case of drinking water fountains, they are also a place of rest and supply in the public space, as well as guaranteeing access to free and public drinking water.

  • Lighting

    Lighting is one of the key factors in creating a sense of security in public spaces. It is necessary to provide adequate lighting in public spaces to ensure that there are no dark areas or corners at night and to guarantee accessibility and safety for all users.

  • Sport fields/ court

    Sports fields and courts are designated spaces for athletic and recreational activities, promoting physical activity, social interaction, and community engagement. They provide a venue for all ages to participate in sports casually or competitively. These venues are vital community assets, offering health benefits and serving as social hubs that connect residents and foster sense of community. They also stimulate economic growth, as sports events and local leagues attract spectators and support nearby businesses. Well-designed sports facilities enhance urban environments, revitalizing neighborhoods and improving the livability of cities. Incorporating sports fields and courts into urban development encourages healthier lifestyles, strengthens social connections, and transforms public spaces into vibrant, multi-functional areas for the community.

  • CCTV

    The installation of video surveillance systems in urban spaces is a good practice to ensure the security of these spaces. This deterrent to vandalism and crime in cities improves both the real and perceived security of urban spaces.
