Reimagine Place is a central portal for placemaking that harnesses the agency of communities across Ireland to amplify their potential in a way that can transform their physical, social, psychological well being.
Reimagine is a nationwide placemaking programme by the Irish Architecture Foundation, working with communities across Ireland to co-create and co-design solutions to problems or opportunities they’ve identified in their locality.
Reimagine matches architects with local partners, enabling communities to play an active role in the development of their neighbourhoods, streetscapes, parks, villages and towns.
Find out more about our projects in the “Fieldwork” section, and stay up to date on the “News” page. Go to “Resources” for toolkits, videos and essays, , and to “About” to find out more about us.
