For the past four years, the Estonian Association of Designers has been a partner in the international Creative Europe project "SMOTIES: Creative works with small and remote places", in which universities, centres, agencies and associations from ten countries have been developing spatial solutions by designing creative innovations. How can design be used as a creative tool, adapt it to the context, and then work with locals to bring innovation to public spaces? 

The exhibition will showcase such interesting examples of work from the last few years. Stories from different parts of Europe unfold: from the 9th-century Icelandic settlement of Borgarnes to the Natura 2000 area of Apano Meria on the Greek island of Syros. Also a Natura 2000 area is the Estonian remote place: the former industrial village of Joaveski in the heart of Lahemaa, which can be visited on Saturday September 21! 

The project is part of the Human Cities platform for interdisciplinary exchange, examining and acting to improve the liveability of indoor and outdoor public spaces to incubate innovative processes for social cohesion through participatory design. 

This exhibition goes hand in hand with the Design Forum, where project partners will present their remote places and the changes they have implemented.
