Today I have the pleasure of speaking with with the extraordinarily gifted artist and catalyst for community building, planning and urban design - David Engwicht.
With his insights and immersive seven day makeovers he shines light into communities so that their gifts emerge out of the shadows of hesitation, and bureaucracy.
His influence has reached around the globe. And we will hear how it all started in his backyard.
Creativity, art, and play are the tools of this master Placemaker. There is so much we can learn about working in-community as professionals and citizens alike from this master placemaker.
In our conversation he discusses pop-up prototyping to create places people love, and powerful messages about investing in trust, and using innovative permission statements to release the creative gifts of persons and their communities.
David is a true original, and I am grateful that he shared his time with me, and that you are here to be part part of it as well . Enjoy
