Forum, Talks, Outdoor live performance,Exploring the City’s “Third Space” | Beijing Design Week 2019

As a significant session of the 2019 Beijing Design Week, the “Urban Vivid”themed event series was organized by Red Brick Art Museum along with Beijing Urban Engineering Design & Research institute Co., Ltd, and UCD Art Development Platform. “Urban Vivid” will last from morning to night on September 6th at Red Brick Art Museum, focusing on the concept of “The Third Space” exploring the recipe for creating a more energetic city via keynotes from academics across the globe, Utalk x“Pecha Kucha Night ”, and an marvelous outdoor Live music performance.

The Third Space
“The Third Space” is a concept proposed by American Social Study Academic Ray Oldenburg in 1989, through his work The Great Good Place. In his theory, “The Third Space” is a concept, and philosophy that elevates a city’s atmosphere.

Under the interdisciplinary concept of “The Third Space”, we can understand “Bar”, “Café”, and other socializing spaces in traditional European cities as a “commuting space” in Asia’s intercity transportation network, a place that represents people’s “free will”.

City Image
How does a city’s image form? It doesn’t only come under professional planning and stylized design on the architecture within, it also depends heavily on the people that are going to inhabit city, their lives play a crucial role on creating a multi-dimensional city.

Railroad Commuting Space”
“Railroad Commuting Space” functions as link between people’s “First Space” and “Second Space”. What type of technique or art intervention method allow us to truly unearth the unique charisma of commuting space and urban culture , to turn it into a place that harbors  connections betwee city history, culture, and lives? This method not only creates an interesting appearence, it also creates energy and opens up unprecedented possibility  for commuting spaces via integration of interdisciplinary design and art.
