Hurly Burly explores urban placemaking strategies to transform Wellington’s Courtenay Place into a vibrant pedestrian destination. The research asks not only what makes a public space usable, welcoming and community-focused, but what creates an atmosphere of exuberance. It combines placemaking theories with analyses of movement and interactions with the site, third-places, vehicles and other bodies, to develop a set of eight strategies that aim to improve upon the existing street.
