Places, A Forum of Environmental Design

Places, Forum of Design for the Public Realm, is a peer reviewed journal that incorporates writings from a variety of fields in design, the arts and social sciences. Please read the mission statement to learn more about the goals and objectives of the journal, and its partner schools and supporters.

PLACES is about the design of places, the experiences they make possible and the consequences they have in our lives. Being in places involves social encounters, immersion in the sights, sounds, sun, wind and atmosphere of a locale, and curiosity about the traces of thought, imagination and investment that have guided their construction and use over time. PLACES is about the dynamics of nature and culture and the conscious stewarding of resources.
