The Safeness by Design: Urban Contexts exhibition features design proposals resulting from three collaborative research projects between designers at RMIT School of Design and the planners and strategists from two international cities, Barcelona and Melbourne:
- the Safe Mobility with Covid-19 (2020) project - solutions for coronavirus impacted urban landscapes with a focus on safe solutions for public transport, personal mobility, and local communities,
- the Safe Mobility in Barcelona (2019-20) project - innovative responses to safety and civic planning issues surrounding the use of e-scooters in Barcelona’s busy metropolis, and
- the Safe City Smart City (2019) project - design solutions for the 24-hour city, with a focus on safe mobility and the safety of women transitting the city at night.
