Priority Intervention Neighbourhoods and Zones Intervention Neighbourhoods (2013-2017).

In 2010 the City Council of Lisbon, aware of the urban inequalities in the city, identified seventy-seven Priority Intervention Neighbourhoods and Zones (hereon, BIP/ZIP, original acronym in Portuguese). The one-year program is a model of participatory government that consists on the development of actions implemented by the civil society itself in the BIPs/ZIPs, with the financial and technical support of the City Council.

Through this program, the City Council is trying to reinforce the socio-territorial cohesion of the municipality by mobilising citizen energy in the search for solutions that can continue into the future. The interventions can be related to the improvement of the appearance of the neighbourhood, the creation of services and activities for the community and visitors, the restoration, re-zoning and occupancy of public space, the promotion of the citizenry, the prevention of risk-related behaviour, etc.

Since 2013 Vitruvius FABLAB is involved in five BIP/ZIP projects. All the projects are supported by participative processes along the project and digital fabrication of a solution as a respond to local specific needs.

Participation along the process of design can bring information that was not expected in the beginning, information that without it the intervention can be a failure. Parametric or CAD/CAM tools in the design process, allows the architect to change and adapt the project to the context of the intervention in real time and involving participatory design along the process. The computationally-based processes are the opportunity for the architect to be more close to the user needs. This new communicating process gives easy access to the potential of digital tools either in drawing or in construction.

Bairros Municipais dos Alfinetes, Marquês de Abrantes e Salgadas (Municipal Neighbourhoods) The project arises to support local identity and to increase the positive aspects of it.

• 54 -Liga-te ao Bairro (Penha de França, 2015)

• 56 – Dar Espasso à Coesão (Beato, 2015)

The project arises based on recapture public spaces as an important planning dimension. The USER is an URBACT European programme that aims design of urban public spaces. The main goals of urban planning are challenged by rapid changes in how cities are used. New trends in how public spaces are used, what the new users’ needs are, increasing malfunctions and conflicts among uses, etc., are challenging the way the city is usually “produced”, designed and managed.
