Asure — spaces & stories / Streets

The useful space between buildings

A narrow path, a courtyard or a sheltered bench can make a neighbourhood easier to inhabit.

Watch how people move through the space. Where do they slow down, cross or choose to sit? Draw those routes before drawing the architecture.

Small changes in planting, shade and surface often make a bigger difference to daily use than a dramatic new object.
