"We all use space. Day after day. And ideally, we shape our shared living environment together. That is a challenge: spatial transformation are complex. Grand plans increasingly clash violently with the limited capacity of the environment and projects are too often purely profit-driven. Against this backdrop, it is not easy to find breathing space. Endeavour is a socio-spatial research office that, for ten years, has been working on a people-oriented, social and sustainable approach to spatial transformations. Shaping our shared living environment is an ongoing balancing act. The needs and interests of different groups must by weighed against each other to achieve a socially just result. Whether in projects, assignments of its own initiatives, Endeavour often plays a connecting role. That is also the case in this book. Together with designers, architects, public authorities and citizens, the social enterprise looks back and forward. Ten thems provide an overview of its field of work as well as generous insights into its practice. This book challenges the reader to take a stance. With a broad, open perspective, it raises urgent questions about the future of our living environment. It is an invitation to reflect, to make space together. Because only together, through inclusive processes and with respect for the environment, can we create places where everyone feels at home."-- Back cover.
