In 2016, Barcelona took a bold step: reclaiming its streets for people, not cars. 🚶♀️🌿
The Superblocks project transformed neighborhoods into cleaner, quieter, and more livable spaces — where kids play outside, air is cleaner, and communities thrive. 🌇💚

Real solutions come from smarter transport, not wider roads. 🚗➡️🚲🚉

✨Designing public squares is about more than open space — it's about human scale. Danish architect Jan Gehl taught us that the best public places feel inviting, not overwhelming. It's all about creating spaces for people, not just around them.
The best public squares feel human - not monumental.

From Highway to Harmony: The Cheonggyecheon Restoration Project
Between 2003 and 2005, Seoul transformed a buried stream beneath a highway into a vibrant urban oasis. The Project didn't just bring back nature - it reshaped the city itself. (1/2)

Many believe: "Without cars, city centers will die."

Paris is making school streets the new normal!
To protect children and promote clean air, the city has transformed over 300 streets near schools into low-traffic or car-free zones. These „rues aux écoles" create safer, quieter, and more breathable spaces for pupils, families and the neighbourhood.

In Amsterdam gilt nun auf 500 Straßen (>270 Kilometer) Tempo 30.
In Deutschland scheitert das oft an den rechtlichen Hürden. Eine Reform der StVO, die das erleichtern sollte, wurde im November im Bundesrat abgelehnt.
