Traits
Video application for designing public spaces
Traits is an application for sketching in real-time onto video footage. It makes collaborative design possible for any spaces that can be filmed. Local communities are rarely asked to engage in the design of their space, sometimes leading to poor design decisions and frustration. Placemaking tries to address that issue but lacks simple and inclusive tools that allow for delivering high-quality outputs that will be taken seriously by decision-makers. With its innovative approach, Traits solves that issue and presents an opportunity, at a crucial planning point, for local communities to take part in the design of the public space.
iF Gold Statement
Traits perfectly reflects the spirit of our time: a mixed media application that lets communities actively engage in designing their own public spaces. By making technology usable and urban design more inclusive, it fosters co-creation by building desirable spaces together. Even more, Traits was developed in a highly participatory way, living up to the studio's own mission.
