This five week course invites you to reimagine three street typologies that can be seen in your city: the local street, the shopping street, and the thoroughfare. We take you on a virtual tour through the Hague, Tel Aviv, and Barcelona to help you deconstruct the street and reimagine it with more people-friendly infrastructure, one element at a time. The final project invites you to make a visual impact by creating your very own “flying cars” animation!

Lior helps cities to look beyond functionality and to plan urban spaces that make people smile. His specialty is the multidisciplinary approach to urban planning and bicycle plans: it is never only about infrastructure, but also the quality of life, urban design, politics, communications, and many more. He worked on bicycle strategies and plans in different countries, like Tel Aviv’s bicycle strategy and Rotterdam’s bicycle vision.

George envisions a world where human experience takes center stage when designing urban mobility systems . We unleash various perspectives through which people can experience their streets, neighbourhoods, and cities. Visual communication is an important way to showcase your vision of how a great street experience merges the human and traffic elements of the streetscape.

What Urban Professionals Have to Say

My first impression of this course was how you could design future streets. This course not only achieves that expectation from my side but also represents a methodology for analysis, considering goals, and mapping our ideas to real life. It makes me more passionate about experiencing other courses o EIT.

I would definitely recommend this to anyone who wishes to show change can be made to their streets. The course tackles a good variety of streets plus having real life examples and feedback helped a lot.
Elijah Go Tian
This course was a great introduction to designing streets for all people, making them safer and more appealing for all modes of travel. I especially liked the very small bite-sized modules, which meant I could 'attend' class in small bits of free time. I am not an urban planner or design professional. I'm an active advocate for walking, biking, and rolling in my city, and this has given me more confidence to speak up for what we need here.

Very well structured.

I have refreshed some of the pieces of information I learnt during my master's degree in planning. Also, having guest experts helps to the lecture to be more practical and fulfilling.
