Custom Bike Urbanism

Resumen

The physical space of the city is a reflection of intertwined social realities and represents the multiple desires of different actors in the city. Urban planning must ensure a variety of spaces and places where a variety of activities can be performed. Current Chinese cities are projected through generic master plans; they are static, centric in nature, and dominated by infrastructure and inaccessible landscaping. “Custom Bike Urbanism” suggests the possibility of constructing urban spaces that are individualist and dispersed, yet able to accommodate a multitude of dynamic forms. With its inherent characteristics of mobility and ephemerality, it brings vibrancy to underused urban space and enhances the function of the existing city.
