strengths/weaknesses of participatory

>>>Community gaining power in design process

>>>Helps community devlop skills: coordination and control

>>>Designs role as a visual medium, designing as if people mattered

>>>Restructuring from a bureaucratic model to a more unique community design imposed

>>>Misuderstanding of cultural context

>>>When misapplied participation can reaffirm an inequitable status quo.

>>>Difficulty Attracting investors & government funding

>>>Mixed-use, mixed income, flexible housing.

>>>Intelligent spacial thinking, community compromise.

>>>Building the community before, during, and after construction.

>>>Distribution of private and shared space

urban massing

shared urban parks,

shared surfaces with

minimal need for

>>>External Cladding to be natural weathering

timber, in varied widths and planned and roughsawn finishes.

>>>Laminated spruce for structural walls. Birch

Ply for internal fixed furniture.

>>>All the proposed dwellings are designed to Passivhaus standards,

>>>Flexible and extendable so that inhabitants can develop

>>>Ensuring high performance construction is maintained

>>>The ultimate goal to build a sustainable

community that endures long after construction

has completed is suggestively achieved by

effective engagement with early adopter commu-nity members at the concept design stage, using

web 2.0 technologies and online virtual environ-

ments to visualise design scenarios, whilst con-

tinuously growing the community before, during,

and after construction.

An opportunity to extend a democratic design agenda, innovative housing ideasSliderStudios response to the Europan 10 competition

design priorities

A building should:

Passivhaus standard for energy efficiency in a

building, reducing its ecological footprint.[1] It

results in ultra-low energy buildings that require

little energy for space heating or cooling

fit into site contextually, achieve universal

accessibility, promote energy and resource

efficiency, ensure healthy indoor environ-

ments, support physical safety and security,

and meet high aesthetic standards

Participatory design as the catalyst for change in modern affordable housingHigh quality design for all, irresoective of ones wealth. R.Feldman

>>>Design can benefit everyone, so in turn, everyone can

help improve design. Embedding a design democracy in yourproject is both socially responsible and commercially sound

democratic participation

Slider Studio has developed a set of democratic design tools to support collaberationand user feedback throughout a projects life

StickyWorld is an innovate online program that allows users to enter Sticky Rooms where users are allowedto upload, review, and comment on pdfs, jpegs, 3D models, and YouTube videos of projects

StickyWorld ultimately helps achieve effective transparency by improving communication and knowledge exchangebetween your project stakeholders. This can include professionals working on projects across the design and construc-tion industries as well as benefitting academics and students working on group projects and research. Likewise, thereare countless uses for StickyWorld in alternative sectors, all centred on encouraging the collaborative review of visual

media.

Displayed in 3D interactive websites, downloadable 3D virtual environments, gaming engines, and physical interactive models, You-CanPlan promotes online competitions, design/build exhibitions, and capture value community feedback which then can be writteninto statements of community involvement.

YouCanPlan is a design-focused consultation and engagement tool enabling localpeople to better understand design proposals for their area.

The Housing Information Modelling Toolkit is a program that can be downloaded for architects and urban designers to alleviate thedesign process in doing community design projects. This program creates a database or library of housing styles, types, and smartdiagrams and coverts these diagrams in three dimensional models. Combining the geometric and spatial data of the individual house orapartment unit with other relevant parameters such as type, tenure and cost, the resultant models are then assembled automatically

comprising a collection of all the different properties within a site, as well as area data for development land and infrastructure.

Housing Information Modelling

Housing Information Modeling Toolkit (HIM) is our solution for removing waste in the housing designprocess.

The ESP tool allows Slider to offer local authorities, developers and Community Land Trusts/owners a new way to buildbetter housing in the UK by enabling development opportunity for all people. ESP encourages its adopter to work withlocal communities to develop planning applications through the organisation of design charettes alongside other archi-tects and design professionals.

Enabled Self Procurement (ESP) is a dual method of social engagement and technicalsimulation for organising self build housing at a volume scale.

DoX is an interactive program that helps architects design enhanced, logical, and systematic approachesfor envelope and cladding design layouts

DoX in other words allows for architects and designers to design various cladding and envelope desings for their projectsto ultimately speed up the design process. This program further more allows the user adjust the panels and the patternin very specific ways such as size and number.
