Explore our newly published field guide, based on several years of work as a part of DESIRE, a New European Bauhaus Lighthouse Demonstrator🌱
It’s the active process of connecting -to people, surroundings, 🐝 and nature- that creates a sense of belonging and identity.
From 2022 to 2024, Desire has brought communities together in 🇩🇰 Denmark, 🇱🇻 Latvia, 🇳🇱 Netherlands, 🇸🇮 Slovenia, and 🇮🇹 Italy.
As one of the first-generation lighthouse demonstrators of the New European Bauhaus, Desire has shown that a sustainable, inclusive, and vibrant Europe depends on one key principle: 🙋♂️citizen involvement.
“Belonging by Connecting” is more than a reflection on eight urban projects across these five countries. It serves as a travel companion, sharing 🎧 stories of citizens as co-designers, and of designers, artists, architects, municipalities, and local communities turning sustainable design into reality.
