Round N Around
São Paolo
How can we further improve the ‘bikeability’ of São Paulo and increase the use of bikes as alternative means for transport? Round N Around is a collaborative research project by the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences (HvA Citizen Data Lab), the University of São Paulo and Het Nieuwe Instituut.
Reading Sites
Reading Sites is a series of written perspectives on the broader field of design. Taking events, from design weeks to biennials, as its starting point, the series invites designers, writers and critics to reflect on emerging tendencies and design ideologies, arriving at new narratives that can foster alternative, shared and non-exploitative futures.
