Abstract

By approaching the research from an user's perspective, De Bogaard in Rijswijk has been redesigned in order to attract pioneers that will aid in reigniting the attraction of the shopping mall. It has been partly refunctioned, in order to blow life into the area and stimulate the community. The new design focuses on the first phase of the redesign of De Bogaard and has 'community based design' as a base. It aims to attract artists and crafstmen, that are often pioneers in bringing areas back to life, e.g. M4H and Amsterdam Noord.
