Place by Design<\/a><\/strong> is SXSW\u2019s public space design competition, highlighting transformative work at the intersection of art, technology, and design that rethinks how we use and interact with the places around us. All artists, designers, community organizers, and entrepreneurs working in transforming the public realm are encouraged to apply<\/strong>. Selected applicants will present their work in a fast-paced pitch competition in the Cities Summit<\/a> at SXSW (March 12-13, 2018).<\/p>\n

Public space is a democratized testing ground for artists, designers, technologists, and entrepreneurs. What better place for them to speak about their work than SXSW, where the city of Austin becomes a thriving, active public space? Small-scale, site-specific projects that transform underutilized aspects of the built environment<\/strong> have the potential to enhance the public good through social interaction, education, civic engagement, health, and much more. Place by Design is a celebration of this work, and a chance for these ideas to gain new practitioners and scale.<\/p>\n
