Public spaces are the focus of public life in our cities, but it’s hard to quantify the quality of a public space. Currently it’s typically assessed by a few metrics or driven by an individual’s opinion.

Quantifying Quality, a research project by SJB and UTS, seeks to democratise this process by drawing upon community opinion and applying a process that refines a design solution based on crowd sourced data.

This project won the award for Leadership, Advocacy and Research (Local and Neighbourhood Scale) at the 2024 Australian Urban Design Awards.

Join Jordan Mathers (SJB) and Mohammed Makki (UTS) as they take us through the process they created.
