Case Studies in Design is a collective writing project led by PennPraxis that creates opportunities for community and design leaders to think together about ways to catalyze transformational design, planning, and place-keeping from the ground up. The goals are to learn from ambitious projects designed in community, to share experience through a public library of case studies, and to train ourselves for new ways of working with communities.
Through this collection, we hope to build conversation among thinkers and doers in community organizations, movements, public agencies, schools, and the architecture, landscape, planning, heritage and art fields.
