Combining visual art and social architecture to redefine the village green, this collaborative project in the Nieuw West neighbourhood  of Amsterdam, has been initiated by the Stedelijk Museum and was designed and organised by Marjetica Potrand Wilde Westen, a group of architects, artists, designers and cultural producers. The project consists of a community vegetable garden and kitchen for use by neighbourhood residents, both of which it is hoped will remain in place after the official end of the programme. The organisers aim was to start a process of transformation for the neighbourhood: providing the people who live in the area with a way to redefine their relationship to public space and the public sphere.
