"PARK(ing) Day is a one-day, global event, where the public, artists and activists collaborate to transform metered parking spaces into “PARK(ing)” spaces - temporary parks for the public good and enhancement of the urban built environment. A quintessentially “open source” project, PARK(ing) Day has been adapted and remixed to address a variety of social issues in diverse urban contexts around the world."
The aim of PARK(ing) Day is to attract attention to the need of more urban open spaces, to generate debate about how public space is handled and improve the quality of the urban human habitat.
The event will conicide with the start of this year's London Fashion Week and London Design Week. Sounds like a great project, and well worth a look if you're in the South Bank area tomorrow.
